More than 20 minutes after the end of the game against Penn State on Saturday, the Auburn University Marching Band stayed and played in a standoff with Penn State’s band to keep the visitors from taking over the stadium for themselves.

Penn State’s fans and band had plenty to celebrate Saturday after the football team’s 41-12 blowout win over Auburn. But as they partied in their corner of the stadium, the Auburn band stayed put, keeping it from being a total Nittany Lion takeover.

“The visiting band is not allowed to be the last sound in the stadium,” a former Auburn band member explained on social media. At one point, a few Auburn tuba players were seen taking steps up the stairs before they heard Penn State’s band fire up another tune, at which time they stepped back in place and let out an exuberant cheer, ready to play again.

While the football team sometimes leaves much to be desired, the band never fails! I love college football.

Gonna be pretty inexpensive to go and watch the eagle flight and the band.

You just have to suffer through watching Auburn Football in person.
