In my home state. Real nice, Wisconsin marching band.MADISON, Wis. (AP) - The University of Wisconsin marching band has been suspended indefinitely while allegations of hazing, alcohol abuse and sexual misconduct are investigated.
The band won't play Saturday during a nationally televised football game between the No. 18 Badgers and No. 14 Ohio State at Camp Randall Stadium. Mike Leckrone, band director since 1969, said he made the decision and it was the first time in his tenure the entire band has ever been suspended and prevented from playing at a game.
No details were immediately released about the behavior, only that it involved inappropriate alcohol use, hazing and sexualized behavior. Leckrone said it involved only a small number of band members, but it was significant enough to warrant the suspension.
Too bad for those innocent band members. Hey, I'm always up for a little debauchery myself, but there's a time and a place. It's the latest in a series of high profile problems for the band. The band is one of the most well-known marching bands in all of college sports. I say ban the band for a year. Maybe the little cocksuckers will get their heads screwed straight on.

What still seems a mystery is what level of debauchery did the band have to achieve to garner this? Keep in mind that with 30-odd years of banging co-eds, drinking from boots, and destroying hotels, including banishments from a number of venues and even stadiums across the country for periods of time, the "bar" has been set pretty high (or low) to achieve this.
