When I was in HS marching band, I was always in awe of the script Ohio

and always cheered the tuba (sousaphone?) player who got to "Dot the I".

I was actually a trombone player, in the OSU school of music. At the time,
Ohio State did not have slide trombones, only valve trombones. Baritones
are just about the same animal, and they needed Baritones, so I picked that
up.

I taught band a few years before becoming a building contractor, then a
carpentry teacher. Just a little change, right?

The "I dotter" is chosen from among the Sousaphone players, by pier votes.
It is quite an honor, and always the high point in a "tuba" players band
career.
