It's awesome to pimp for a modern day dictator like Hugo Chavez.......

Southern 's Band serves the same purpose that overall athletic programs do at much higher budgeted schools.

The "Human Jukebox" advertises and gets the schools name mentioned year round.

The value to the overall school can not be overlooked.

This remark made me wonder how much cheaper it is to run a top grade band like the Human Jukebox than it is to run a ascending FBS football program. If getting recognition through the band is that much cheaper, then it makes sense. Of course, having a nationally known band and a nationally known football program (like Ohio State) would be the best of all worlds.

You would be surprised how many folks know the SU brand because of the Bayou Classic.
