Went to an HBCU, people definitely cared more about the band than the football game unless it was against the rival.
Exactly. I was in the band, so we never paid total attention to the game. But even as a graduate and going back I still didn’t pay attention to the game. There’s nothing like a “high step” high school band or an HBCU band. That’s what makes the game so fun and energetic.
We black folks bring the house down at a halftime show
Absolutely
Grambling st university my second favorite school next to notre dame got the best band black colleges
So true. Been watching FAMU Marching Band since I was a little boy. Season passes just to see the band.
Yyeessss Lord 😂😂😂😂
And he did all of that in church shoes!
Let's not forget the shiny suit!!!!😆😆🙌
He was in Tuskegee marching crimson pipers show band. He is wearing a silk suit.
@@boom7star731 the suit is nice, quite sure it cost more that my clothes😶 it was a joke😑😑
That silk looking smooth like lotion
@@BlckHippy Yes.
I don’t care his many times I watch this is still funny af
This had me and my wife crying because we went to Morgan State University (HBCU) and played in the band. Both parents introduce band culture being from New Orleans and South Carolina.
How can I get that music ??? Name of it
went to Morgan also.. and this is spot on..I remember hanging out on the bridge before I walked over behind hurt gymnasium to see the football team and the band practice..love Coldspring and hillen lane..MSU Bear forever.
Morgan vs Howard halftime show was always the craziest!
😂😂😂
Went to Notre Dame College close by and we definitely popped up to Morgan every now and then to see the band and the dancers prancing on the field with their capes. 💯
As a graduate of FAMU! You know that's when everyone comes to their seats is just before half time to see the band! That's the highlight of the game!
Earlene, from one Earlene to another, my uncle and cousin graduated from FAMU but I am NCA&T! AGGIE PRIDE!
Facts 🐍🧡💚🐍
🧡💚🧡💚
💚💛💚💛 much love from Norfolk State
🐍🐍🐍💚🧡
Everyone in my family graduated from an HBCU and this segment had all of us laughing and crying at the same time. The SEC will never understand the importance of having a band that can blow away their rivals from the stands and on the field. Shout Out To The SWAC! #HBCUPRIDE #BRAVENATION
Alcornite Here!!!
@@musicalbenches Hello Alcornite!
SONIC BOOM TIL THE DAY I DIE!!!!!!!!
Sec ain't worried about bands.
World Famed!!!!
I graduated from Grambling State and he is so on point about half-time!! I have watched this over and over!Ricky is so funny!! 💕💚💕
I was so mad when tv cut to a commercial break instead of showing Grambling marching band
Bayou Classic 💯
I agree with you. GSU graduate of 2011.

My mom is a Grambling State alumna and she instilled in my entire family the importance of that half time performance! #GramFam 🐅

Me too😂
One thing I can say i missed out on in life is Black College but I will be sending my Sons.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾✊🏾my wife and I say the same..whenever we have kids, HBCU all day!
Yasss!! The black college experience is so important. It’s an amazing thing to be around other black people who are smart and in search of higher learning! I danced for Grambling State. I’m so glad I had that experience.
I felt that!
Facts ✊🏽💯💯
Yes I miss marching with my Jags. 🤗🤗🤗.. Miss Doc to 😢😢.. That talk we had in your office helped made me a better man today ..
He ain’t lying lol
U can't even choose just 1 part of how we do it!!! Highstepping, leaning, rocking, dippin', twirling, how we hold the staff, let alone how we groove & CREATE THE VIBE!!! Like where else?!!🗽🙌🏾🤩🤸🏾♂️
He is NOT LYING...HBCU halftime is a show you cannot miss!
I watched this while eating lunch in the breakroom with ear buds on. I laughed so hard ,I had to spit out my food to keep from choking!!😂😭😂😭 one of my co workers was asking me if I was okay and was getting ready to do the heimlich on me. I could barely speak so I just showed him the video. BIG POOKIE!!!!!😂😂😂

I've seen this a 1000 time but its still hilarious 🤣
Hes the goat comedy
Get it Rickey! Love HBCU marching bands.
Battle of the bands my childhood superbowl
Omg yess
His bass player in the master p band is still the funnies thing ever
Damn as an alumni of HBCU this was on point
As a graduate of NCCU I
in the ‘80’s he was spot on😂😂😂!
This still hilarious and true after all these years classic skit!😂😂
Back in the early 90s I went to the FAMU/Southern game at the old Georgia Dome in Atlanta. I asked my friend who had a brother that was an FAMU alumni, " why is everyone gathering in the concourses?" He told me to wait for halftime. Lord behold when halftime arrived, there probably wasn't a single person in the concourses. I haven't seen anything like that halftime show. Unfu**king believable. I am ashamed that I haven't been to another one since. I live in Charlotte and NC has the 2nd highest amount of HBCU'S behind Alabama. With the opening of sporting events, I will be going to as many HBCU games as possible. God bless our HBCU families.
He killed this one 💯💯💯
This will never get old 🤣🤣🤣😂 I LOVE IT
Southern University alumni here!! He is on point.
#Suno in tha bldg... #NOLABORNNRAISED
My all time favorite skit😂😂😂
I've enjoyed your comedy for years, but this is without a doubt my most favorite of all your sketches and routines. You were spot-on on both sides of the line so the authenticity and attention to detail is much appreciated. As a college bandsmen, the moments in which we see pieces of our story being told come few and far between, so seeing you dedicate a few minutes in your show to spreading love our way is awesome. As an HBCU bandsmen and proud alumni (Norfolk State University "Spartan Legion" Band), I appreciate the respect for our hard work and the excellence we all attempt to bring to the fifty yard line as we continue the legacy and tradition of our great band programs each year in the annual fall ritual that is the backdrop for marching band. I'm sure a lot of other people who also enjoyed this skit got a laugh from the fan's perspective, but I'm personally here to tell you that you gained a place in the hearts of many who have spent time in the ranks over the years. So, keep striving to reach the ultimate plateau, achieve your dreams, do what you do with nothing but excellence in mind, and aspire others to be the absolute best they can be as you get opportunities to pour into those blessed to see and hear you as you've always done.
Take Care!!!
I hope Ricky has read your words. So heartfelt, thorough and inspiring! 💜
As an Alabama State Alum...
That was us!! I went to school with him!!! He's spot on!😂
So Proud to be from an HBCU! 😂💀
This never gets old.
Tuskegee University❤💛 in the house. I love my HBCU!

2023 this is it will be going to that Good PV& Grambling game & half time will be lit 🔥
Who’s here in 2021. I have taught and worked with both style of bands. I love them both for being so uniquely different. The kids and staff in both styles work just as hard. Its just a different approach. Overall i do enjoy HBCU for football games and Corps Style for competition season, esp DCI. I am a band nerd for life
I miss all the HBCU games and halftime. All the camaraderie, all the memories, its nothing like a good HBCU stepping band
Yeah!!! That's how our band was at Prairie View A&M University!! Great memories!!!!
ugh
@@dandrijackson1031 LOL
PV U KNOW!!!!!!💜💛
@@jamesbone357 yessssss♥️💜💛
@@dandrijackson1031 Lol!! That's alright but I KNOW🤣💜💛
Sho you right. My brother was a White Whale tuba player with the FAMU band. As he has since graduated we are still proud.
I vote for HBCU Black College Band Classic - an annual event - Go Mississippi Valley State University - Delta Devils baby!!
Mississippi in the house
I have seen this dozens of times and it is STILL hilarious
No matter how many times I see this, I laugh until I cry😂
I keep watching this like it's the first time and cracking up.
*The bands were the highlight for me*
I remember this special, crazy funny, I wish he would do more
I Graduated from Jackson State he was spot on the Boom always Brought every Saturday
Halftime is game time!!! 2021!! Knees up in this camp!
Yo Ricky is funny when he starting marching with his legs boy that was funny 😂😂😂😂😂😂
This is my favorite video. I typically got to the game right before half time. Ain't nothing like an HBCU half time show!
Shout out to the 1983 to '87 Tuskegee Marching Crimson Pipers! Tuba Funk Forever !!! Heeeeeeyyyyyy Tuskegeeeeeeeeeeee!
FAMU!! That's all the way right!
🐍🧡🧡🐍
This never gets old!!!🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂
I miss going to football games and the band! Lets be clear, whenever football opens up I will be there and won't take a minute for granted. Aggie Pride!
Aggie Pride!
@ngozi warrior, yes it’s nothing like Aggie Pride.I love my HBCU Alumni ❤️
Was in the pit at Lebanon High Tennessee freshman year. For all the love the football teams on Friday Night Lights, band folks thinking “alright y’all, let’s get this right and make sure the kinks are worked out. It’s okay to make a mistake at halftime, an Exhibition”. Saturday was when it mattered!!! “So and so, is your band ready?? YOU MAY TAKE THE FIELD IN COMPETITION!!” I didn’t have a great experience, but would have been proud to have given it one last shot after I transferred to my Christian school.
TS... TS... TS... TS... U! Tennessee Tennessee State! That's sounds a lot like our theme song! Yes! I needed this.
Back looking at this again in 2023!! Such a classic… I crack up just like I’ve never seen it before!!
OMG.. Hilarious.. as a Graduate of Norfolk State.. he is Spot on! Go Spartan Legion.. Behold!
I got the chance to see Mr. Smiley, 2021, in Orlando, on the Martin Lawrence, lit Tour. He brought the house down💯
😂
Lmfao 🤣🤣 he did that dead on because we're I live in Michigan they got marching bands like that I told them to go down south and see real bands 🤘🏿🔥🔥🔥
I’m from Detroit mi , the battle of the bands use to be hype back in the day it’s not the same no more
Rickey Always Has Me In Tears...LAUGHING!
I'm crying... Winton woods hs band 2008!!! Man I miss those days...# Cincinnati

My favorite bit Rick ever did
RICKEY AIN'T NEVER LIED!🤣🤣🤣
Yesssssssssss! Half time is the bomb! JSU Jackson State University Sonic Boom of the South!
Never gets old
This is the ABSOLUTE TRUTH!!! It’s a wonder the bleachers are still standing from all that rocking. Alabama State, Alabama A&M, Miles, Tuskegee, Stillman, Talladega that’s just in Alabama. You haven’t lived until you’ve seen an HBCU Halftime! Nothing but TALENT!❤️❤️❤️
LOL! BIG POOKIE! 😊AMEN AND HALLELUJAH...
FOREVER HBCU’s!!!!!!!!! 💜💜
HBCUs are the BEST...... St Paul’s College here
Went to spc too
Rickey Smiley is EVERYTHING! 🤣🤣🤣
Hey Ricky ! I’m white snd I was in marching band in high school. I get pissed because college football don’t show the bands on tv !! The band practices way more than the football players!! They work hard asf!! It should be shown !! Love you so much!!😍🎶😁❤️
We don't have a HBCU up here in the Northeast. When I moved to St. Petersburg FL and went to the Rattlers game. I was like how come no one is going to the concession stands. BOOM💣💥
Then I found out man the bands were the reason most people were in the stands.
Ricky Smiley has real issues and that's what makes him HYSTERICAL 🤣😂
You is crazy 🤣 I come back and watch this all the time ❤️
Ricky Smiley needs a Netflix special.
Ricky was point. We show up and we show out. My wife was part of Tennessee State AoB. Yes sir. When it comes to black marching bands, its complicated because they can't be duplicated. 💯💯👍🏿👍🏿
Very Funny, HE Had It Down,💘
The Majorettes 😂😂
My favorite Ricky Smiley video.
Accurate 😂
Mr. Smiley oh, you are so nasty, but at the same time you are so funny. Don't you ever doubt your God-given talent to bring laughter into the Hearts of Millions of people around the world. I sure wish I had grown up with you. I would have been around you 24/7. Don't you ever doubt your talent that God has blessed you with. It was your blessing that he bestowed upon you. This is in regard to the watermelon joke and the cop😀😀😀
This never gets old lol
This brings me back to my band days. We had circus music all the time as my dad would always call it. We were never allowed to dance when the other bands played good songs. We were military style band. They still play the same songs now as we did on high school, smh! Yes I truly believe every band needs and deserves a Big Pookie!
Grambling & Southern at
The Bayou Classic 💯💯
St. Aug marching 100 at
Mardi Gras..💯
Southern and ASU are my favorite bands. I want to see them play one day.
One of my favorite Rickey Smiley jokes!!!
1:21 not mentioning North Carolina A&T is criminal.
