Anyone know of a video of it on YouTube? This had to be the best half time show I ever saw TBDBITL perform. I would love to show it to a few people that didn't attend.
For those that didn't attend... They did a tribute to video games (Mario, Tetris, Halo, Zelda) and did a formation of a horse running. Was extraordindary!







I've been to a lot of games and I have to say this was the best halftime show I've seen. Congrats to the band and it was a great compliment to the game.
The running horse was absolutely phenomenal. They did a Tetris too
As a bandie for life, playing at the high school and collegiate level, I can say this was by far the best show I've ever seen and will ever see. The horse was basically a middle finger to any band ever; it was incomparable, it was THAT good. The singing of the Halo theme by the band (while mic'd up) was the icing on the cake.
The Halftime show was unbelievable.
That was an excellent show, by far the best I have seen at a game. The Halo bit was great especially.
...and Michigan still sucks.
Subscribe to Mbandfan2 on youtube! I think he goes to all the game and records the performances and Skull Sessions.

The performance was crazy good. The moving "bucking" horse was the cherry on top. During the Miami game the band did a tribute to the beach boys and during Surfin' USA formed a surfer on a board riding a wave (in motion). It's incredible the coordination and precision involved in those performances. Hats off to the halftime entertainment and ending with the traditional script Ohio. It was one of the fastest halftimes ever.
Found it. Watch. Now

Pick up your feet, turn your corners square! And DRIVE DRIVE DRIVE!!!

This gave me goosebumps! Absolutely incredible! The 20 second Tetris bit was my personal favorite but the horse was amazingly well done.
Just watched it and it was incredible. They had to make up for the Nebraska kickers running on during Script Ohio.
THAT WAS FU@%ING AWESOME!!!! I've never seen that type of performance in my life. It had to be something to see it live. TBDBITL continues to amaze and inspire!
An angry fan...rooting for an angry team...led by angry coaches
I really wish they would show the half time show on tv. It would make my at home viewing experience so much better. Damn I love this band!
Absolutely amazing!!! That's why they are TBDBITL!!
You have to hate losing more than you love winning! GO BUCKS!!
Yeah its on the front page of reddit
The half-time show was one of the best ever! The horse was da bomb! Everyone sitting around us was asking anyone if they "got that on video" and "can you forward that to me right now?" I personally loved Pac-Man and the " game over". Set the tone for the second half of the game perfectly!
I was completely geeked out watching this! Awesome theme and amazing syncronization!
One of the many reasons tOSU band is and will always be TBDBITL!!!!!!!!
So awesome!
For those of you confused by the horse, it was from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, which is not a CLASSIC video game.

I ran into a band member on high street after the game and congratulated him on the show saying that we (the fans) all loved it. His response was thanks, we've been working really hard on it for two weeks. I didn't say anything else to him, but I was like two weeks? thats it?!? Wow, man that makes it even more amazing I think.
Ugh I hate to nerd out here but the horse is Epona. Epona first appeared in Ocarina of Time which was released in 1998. The game and the horse are both classics.

I just watched the video and that was the best performance I've seen by our band... Not to be negative but I think I saw Stanford do something like that in 2007. That being said I think ours was better. Here is a link to the Stanford performance should you care to compare: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2UaVcZPsYU

Yes, by far the most impressive thing about TBDBITL is that they do a different halftime show for every home game yet still get some very precise drill in there.
There are drum corps (DCI) that do more impressive stuff, but usually one show per season not installing something like that in 2 weeks.
Whoever wrote the drill for that show is my hero.
Incredible. I thought the Halloween halftime show a while back was good, but last night was awesome. When they put the theme up on the giganto-tron I thought it had great potential to be cheesy, but as it got going and went on, my cousin and I looked over at each other and simultaneously said, Oh hell no. It was impressive...
"The revolution will be televised."
That was quite impressive. Glad you shared.
that was awesome for sure. The best one I have ever seen them do however is still their tribute to classic films at halftime of the '06 Michigan game. I would love to see a video of that one again somehow.
The best one I can remember was a few years ago on Veterans Day(?) when they did each of the armed services symbols while doing their songs followed by the American flag - Waving!
Saturday was awesome as well.
I had to post on my facebook page so all my people who aren't from Ohio would recognize why this is TBDBITL.
The whole show was so good, but when they did the horse formation my jaw hit the floor. It is no exaggeration what so ever to say they are The Best Damn Band in The Land. End of story. Period. No exceptions.
It's great to be a Buckeye!
I know there's a game saturday, and my ass will be there.
