It’s not often that the players in an NFL game are upstaged by the marching band, but that’s exactly what happened during a Baltimore Ravens game.
The first 2018 regular season game for the Ravens came against the Buffalo Bills, and while the Ravens won convincingly by a scoreline of 47-3, it was a band member who was the real winner.
Air drumming along to Rush on the sidelines, for a moment this guy was quite simple the coolest.
The best thing I saw yesterday?

The man knows what he’s doing.
Drumming along to Rush’s Tom Sawyer at the M and T Bank stadium, the musician in question is a member of the Baltimore Ravens marching band according to sports reporter Prescott Rossi, who spotted the gentleman during a timeout in the first quarter.
A little background info… I spotted him rocking during a timeout in the 1st quarter. It was so pure. I always look for cool stuff when I shoot #Bills games, and I'm thrilled that so many people love this dude's energy too.

Is air drumming about to overtake air guitar as the air musician’s first port of call?
