College football is kind of a big deal in the US, but if you go to Ohio State sometimes it's not the game itself that is the main attraction.

The Ohio State University's Marching Band has been taking YouTube by storm over the last few years with their elaborate, pop-culture infused half-time shows. Referencing iconic music, films and video games, the group - sometimes, and not inaccurately, referred to as The Best Damn Band in the Land - has breathed new life into the idea of big band performances.

The last two weekends have seen them produce a double whammy of viral hits in the form of their tributes to Michael Jackson and Hollywood blockbusters. These, though, are just two more in a long line of feats of choreography, and they're unlikely to be the last. Oh, and the music isn't too shabby either. 

You can see their latest efforts, as well as some of their 'greatest hits' below. Just be warned: the hypnotic power of these shows can make ten minutes disappear before you know it.
