A majorette is a performer who combines baton twirling with dance movements, primarily associated with marching bands during parades.

Also the army and defense forces were traditionally parodied as a way of protesting against the Prussian occupation of the Rhenish area at the time.

Around this time, Germany had a large number of armies, and in each regiment there were women and girls selling and providing food and drink and taking on chores like washing clothes.

In the late 19th century, the carnival associations found further inspiration in the revue girls performing in theaters at the time.

The somewhat slovenly camp followers who accompanied the troops have evolved into a show dance group, but still inspired by the Prussian army.

The first performance was introduced at the orange blossom classic by a majorette dance team named The Golden Girls.

Almost 55 years after that December 1968 game, majorette culture has grown in popularity from Tik-Tok trends to being featured in Vice President Kamala Harris inauguration procession.
