The first thing the Pitt band does on a Tuesday evening is jumping jacks.
Then come the partner stretches. Then the whole band, spread across the floor of the Dome, counts along with the drum majors, cheering when someone squeezes out one more rep. Some members are in gym shorts. Others are in everyday clothes, a few in dresses, and a handful in ghost costumes.
It's Halloween week.
It looks like the start of a team practice, because in a lot of ways it is.
