A/N: I already posted my argument for why Marching Band is a sport. This is the one argument for why it's not that I could never argue against. Because it's based on opinion.

Not a Sport
Marching Band is not a sport because it is an ART! I'm not saying that the Marching Band doesn't work hard. They probably work harder than any of you. But something can't be both a sport and an art. Is the orchestra a sport? No, because it's an art. Marching Band is very difficult. I'm not saying I could ever do it. I can't march and I can't play an instrument. But that doesn't change the fact that it's not a sport.
A/N: I know it's short. But that's the basic jist of what he was saying. That is the part that I couldn't argue against. Except that he agreed that dancing and competitive cheer are sports while marching band is not. So what are your thoughts? Comment!
