In some places they also created bell covers for wind instruments. Just absolute insanity.

Bell covers are at least unobtrusive and they used to be common and decorative in matching bands.

The holed face masks and keeping the band off football fields "to protect the blessed football players" (I sh!t you not) were indefensible and inexcusable.

Bell covers lasted one football game at my daughter’s high school. Band director said they messed up the sound too much and they were dropped. No one complained. Thank God for small Texas towns.
