Four hundred fifty years ago, Pensacola's first settlers were forced to flee the coast after a September hurricane battered their colony and destroyed several of their ships.Saturday, dark storm clouds again loomed over the city, this time threatening to spoil the festivities at Pensacola's 450th birthday party.
But by sunset, the clouds cleared, the air cooled and the FAMU Marching 100 flooded into downtown to help thousands celebrate Pensacola's birthday.
The band strode down Palafox Place in a flurry of cymbal crashes and drum beats, and was giving free reign to entertain as they saw fit.

Thank you Rattler Nation for always being on top of current news. Is there any way that you can provide us with a photo gallery of FAMU football practices?
ReplyDeleteI visit this site several times daily and really appreciate the outstanding job you guys do in providing us with the truth ( something the Tallahassee Democrat & the St. Pete Times are good at distorting).
