Head over heels for the Blue Band drum major

It would be difficult to imagine a Penn State football game without the Blue Band marching down the field in formation, the drum major leading the way, psyching up the band and keeping everyone’s spirits high. The drum major is known for his high-step strutting, his mace acrobatics, and his signature move – a running forward flip – that makes many who are watching catch their breath. There’s been a drum major since 1901, when the Cadet Drum and Bugle Corps was first formed.
