“The viewers will really see the hard work that the Mighty Marching Hornets put in all week in preparation for our eight-and-a-half-minute halftime show. They are going to be right there with us as we go through our pre-drill, practice and performance,” Oliver said. “Words cannot truly express how awesome this is for our band and for the University. The band’s appearance in this show will give the world a chance to see not only the musical opportunities here at ASU, but also the educational and academic opportunities.”
