Seeing the kids and their halftime show on that commercial reminds me of when an about-to-be 10-year old me decided it would be cool to re-enact the photo shown here to commemorate the Bicentennial, with two friends and me marching down our street to the cheers of the entire neighborhood. I got two Guy's Potato Chip tubs — they looked like snare drums when you turned them upside down — and used string for straps. We'd use pencils for drum sticks. We even had a big flag. It would be glorious. Then I realized that no one had a fife and all my friends thought it was stupid.
