Apparently it was extremely hot and the band had already decided not to wear their heavy wool uniforms and instead were wearing Dry Fit T Shirts and Shorts.That sucks. Iowa band member collapsed right before the band was to play halftime. He had cardiac arrest and has now been removed from life support due to severe brain damage.

This is hitting that community hard also. RIP to young man and prayers for his family and friends.
