This Saturday at the Arizona Football Stadium the opponent’s marching band will play at halftime, an occasion which normally only occurs when Arizona State or Northern Arizona compete against the Wildcat football team.
This won’t be the first time the Grambling State Band has taken the field with The Pride of Arizona. On January 15, 1967, during the very first Super Bowl’s halftime show, GSU’s 129-member all male band played along with the University of Arizona’s band. The next 23 Super Bowls featured college marching bands, before the era of big-name artists graced the Super Bowl stage.
