The Tuba section is a commanding presence on and off the field. The shining silver bells swinging in unison grab and hold the viewer's attention, as do the back-breaking dip flashes performed during the series. The commitment to marching excellence is matched by the section's powerful bass which serves as the foundation of the ensemble. In the same way that former presidents retain their honorific for life, so too do Spartan Tubas. The ties of history are strong, and active alumni relationships go back decades. Come to a rehearsal, come to a game, and pay us a visit. It's always great to be a Spartan Tuba.
