Ohio State Marching Band

Shawnee123 · 01-11-2007, 10:20 AM

The Ohio State University's marching band "Script Ohio" formation is legendary; it is an elite position to be the one who dots the I. Here is a pic supposedly done after their terrible loss to the Florida Gators monday night.

I'm hoping the photogs here can tell me if it's fake, and if so how was it done?

Anyway, it's clever.

Yes, it's photoshopped. The top of the S was stolen from the top of the O, see how it matches? The spacing betwen the people is identical. The bottom curve on the S also came from the bottom right of the O. Notice how the field lines don't match up just above the top of the O, that section has clearly been moved a bit. Also, the little t used to be an o (presumably from "Ohio")--you can see how the green field to the right of it looks kind of smudgy in a shape that would make it fill out into an o.

Ahh,yes, I do see it now. I don't have that kind of eye I guess, never know what to look for. Once it's pointed out, though, it's pretty obvious.
Thanks.

And two....... Ohio State has too much pride to defile such a long and wonderful tradition. They take the horrible loss with stride.
I use to dream of dotting the "I" ever since i first saw them perform back at the Hall of Fame bowl in 92.
(edit) Oh and that isnt even Glendale stadium!

Oh and GO BUCKS!
