AGT

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

Ever see these folks live? Chicago, represent!
The Jesse White Tumbling Team Audition | Week 5 | America's Got Talent 2026
:-||

Every person in Chicagoland has seen them live at one point or another. :D

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jesse_White_Tumbling_Team

The tumblers have appeared in the movies Heaven is a Playground, Ferris Bueller's Day Off,[4] and The Meteor Man. They have performed at the half time for every NBA team with the exception of the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Charlotte Hornets. They have also appeared in two presidential inaugural parades, for President Bill Clinton and President Barack Obama.

The Jesse White Tumbling Team makes over 1,500 appearances each year, in state and out of state. They have gone to U.S. states as far as Hawaii, and have even made international performances. They have gone to Canada 17 times, Tokyo, Japan to appear on television, China for the Chinese New Year, Bermuda, the Cayman Islands, and Croatia.

I question the math about the tumbling team. Over 1500 appearances in a year is an average of over 4 a day. I doubt it.

They're big, they have more than one troop and they can make multiple appearances in a day.

I imagine you mean that each troop can make multiple appearances in a day. It's not like a 5 minute set during a halftime show will exhaust them. They could also perform at area schools, semi-pro games, carnivals, etc.
