The Ohio State Marching band showed off its precision and knowledge of slightly nerdy viral dance moves on Saturday.

During the Ohio State band's halftime show, the marching musicians got in formation to reenact the dance of .... The Backpack Kid.

Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
