I know a lot of people done made similar threads to this one, but I was watching some clips and gotta get thoughts. I you were giving the authority to create a battle, what would it be called, and what city would host the event? Only catch is,10 high schools and 3 colleges.{Me personally i would love to see Osborn,Mchigan come down here for a battle.}

I WOULD CALL THIS BATTLE "THE LAKE PONTCHARTRAIN SHOWDOWN" AND I WOULD HAVE IT TO BE AT COVINGTON HIGH SCHOOL'S JACK SALTER STADIUM (COW PALACE) BECAUSE THEY HAVE THE BIGGEST FOOTBALL STADIUM IN THAT REGION OF LAKE PONTCHARTRAIN. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE HIGH SCHOOL BANDS SUCH AS:

2. ST. PAUL'S
3. O' PERRY WALKER
4. MCDONOGH 35

6. RABOUIN
7. WEST JEFFERSON
8. HIGGINS
9. HELEN COX
10. WARREN EASTON
11. EAST ST. JOHN
12. ST.AUGUSTINE
THEN I WOULD DIVIDE THE HIGH SCHOOLS IN TO CATEGORIES I, II, AND III, HAVING FOUR BANDS IN EACH CATEGORY. THEN THE BAND THAT WINS IN EACH CATEGORY WOULD COMPETE AGAINST EACH OTHER FOR THE GRAND PRIZE OF $100,000. CATEGORY I WOULD BE: MCDONOGH 35, RABOUIN, WARREN EASTON, AND ST. AUGUSTINE; CATEGORY II WOULD BE: O' PERRY WALKER, WEST JEFFERSON, HELEN COX, AND HIGGINS; CATEGORY III WOULD BE: COVINGTON, ST. PAUL'S, KENTWOOD, AND EAST ST. JOHN.

5. TEXAS SOUTHERN UNIVERSITY
6. NORTH CAROLINA A&T UNIVERSITY
7. LANGSTON UNIVERSITY
8. GRAMBLING STATE UNIVERSITY
9. FORT VALLEY STATE UNIVERSITY
10. ALBANY STATE UNIVERSITY
11. MILES COLLEGE
12. TEXAS COLLEGE
THEN I WOULD DIVIDE THE COLLEGES IN TO CATEGORIES I, II, AND III, HAVING FOUR BANDS IN EACH CATEGORY. THEN THE BAND THAT WINS IN EACH CATEGORY WOULD COMPETE AGAINST EACH OTHER FOR THE GRAND PRIZE OF $300,000. CATEGORY I WOULD BE: SOUTHERN UNIVERSITY, JACKSON STATE UNIVERSITY, TEXAS SOUTHERN UNIVERSITY, AND UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS-PINE BLUFF; CATEGORY II WOULD BE: BETHUNE COOKMAN UNIVERSITY, NORTH CAROLINA A&T UNIVERSITY, GRAMBLING STATE UNIVERSITY, AND LANGSTON UNIVERSITY; CATEGORY III WOULD BE: FORT VALLEY STATE UNIVERSITY, ALBANY STATE UNIVERSITY, MILES COLLEGE, AND TEXAS COLLEGE.
THIS WOULD BE A TWO DAY EVENT: THE HIGH SCHOOLS WOULD START ON SATURDAY AT 9:00 A.M.-UNTIL AND THE COLLEGES WILL START ON SUNDAY FROM 9:00 A.M.- UNTIL.
THEN I WOULD HAVE A DRUMLINE BATTLE FOR AN HOUR LONG INTERMISSION ON BOTH DAYS, EACH HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE WILL HAVE TO PLAY THEIR BEST CADENCE IN ORDER TO WIN.
