OSU Marching Band Netflix Documentary Rumor Debunked

Rumors have been swirling about an Ohio State University Marching Band documentary hitting Netflix, but it’s time to set the record straight – it’s just not happening. According to band communications director Konner Barr, the rumor started from misleading social media posts looking for clicks.

But don’t worry, there’s still some band content out there to enjoy. In 2020, staff members Joe Camoriano and Aaron Nestor put together a nearly two-hour documentary called “TBDBITL 141” on YouTube. It’s a great way to get a behind-the-scenes look at the band.

Unfortunately, fake news about the Ohio State band isn’t uncommon on Facebook groups like Buckeye Pride Forever and The Ohio State University Marching Band. These groups have been spreading misleading stories, but Barr wants to remind everyone that the official band page is the one with the blue checkmark and almost 500,000 followers.

Despite efforts to debunk these rumors, the band has been too busy with their performances to address them head-on. With the season in full swing, they’re focused on bringing their A-game to the playoffs.

So, next time you hear something fishy about the band, make sure to double-check the official Ohio State University Marching Band page to get the real scoop. And in the meantime, get ready to cheer on Ohio State as they take on Texas in the Cotton Bowl on Jan. 10 at 7:30 p.m. – it’s bound to be an exciting match-up!
