From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Script Ohio is a musical drill performed by the Ohio State University Marching Band during pregame celebrations at Ohio State University American football games. First executed in 1936, it has been credited as the earliest example of moving script writing by a marching band and has been variously described as "one of college football's most iconic, longstanding traditions" and among "the most impressive examples of American folk art in existence". The maneuver is performed to the Robert Planquette march "Le Régiment de Sambre et Meuse".
