The White and Red Vito Awards

Back in the old days, the clarinet section all marched with white Vito clarinets. It set them apart from other clarinet sections in the big ten and made them look really "snazzy." Due to depreciation, most of the clarinets became unusable so now the members use their own boring black clarinets.

ENTER 1998: somebody gets the idea to "bring back the white Vito." So the clarinet section decided that each week one member would get to march with a white Vito clarinet. That person would be selected by the clarinet section on a basis of who demonstrated the most spirit at the previous football game.

ENTER 2005: The Leblanc Corporation (maker of "The White Vito") donates a new White Vito clarinet, as well as a Red Vito clarinet. The new Red Vito: for the clarinet player with the best attitude at practice and the previous game; it is voted on by the section just as the White Vito.
