Tuesday afternoon, AT&T announced that the Marching 100 would be featured on the covers of its "Real Yellow Pages" phone directories. The directories feature resident, business and government contact information. The books, also known as phone books, are provided to residents free of charge. The Marching 100 will be on an estimated 385,000 copies in the Tallahassee area. The picture features a photo of the marching band performing with "precision and accuracy." Not only will the band be featured on the cover of the regular sized phone books, but the Marching 100 will also be featured on the portable version of the book. The decision to place the band on the cover had much to do with FAMU's values. "We really like to partner with someone who has a strong influence on the community," said Barb Orton a Regional Sales Manager at AT&T. "We really wanted to recognize the (bands) commitment to the community and the state."
