The rivalry between Washington State and Washington is unquestionably big for both schools, but for the Washington State band, brotherhood and camaraderie trumped rivalry Friday in Pullman.
The Cougar band spent Friday afternoon learning how to play “Bow Down to Washington,” the UW fight song.
The Husky band was not in Pullman as planned, going home after one of its buses flipped Thursday near George en route to Pullman, sending 47 of the 56 to the hospital. Two remained hospitalized Friday with “injuries that are not believed to be life threatening,” according to a release from the University of Washington.
