Girls (mostly) who spin a flag, rifle, and/or sabre( or sword). They are a mix between cheerleaders, dancers, and football players. They work their asses off to look good out on the field. Color guards are always together in shows, and strive to look the same. They are the best part of marching band.
Bob: Hey, whose that hot chick wearing a unitard and spinning a flag?
Steve: Oh, that's Sally, she's on color guard!
Bob: Sweet.
Steve: Oh, that's Sally, she's on color guard!
Bob: Sweet.

another phrase for "free drama classes" that gives twenty highly disturbed teenage girls access to long poles, sabre's, rifle's, and the ability to kick their faces with their legs. basically, if you really want to die, go tell one of the girls that they remind you of an old cheerleading buddy. they'll go tai chi on ur ass.
Joe: Whoa... dude... did you see that gaurdie shove that flag up that guys ass? he must've cheated on her or something.
Frank: AHHH! cover your balls man... they're coming towards us with sabre's!
Joe: Oh no... my artificial leg just broke... go on without me... SAVE YOURSELF!!!!!!

A group of people in a marching band (typically girls and flaming homosexuals) who spin and chuck into their 6-foot metal poles with 4-foot silks, wooden/plastic rifles, and unsharpened swords (sabres). These people are the most badass people in the marching band. No one fucks with the guard. They are some of the most talented people in the band. They also never have any free time due to marching band and winter guard.

People call us 'Marching band Cheerleaders'. Then we use our oversized pole weapons to beat them to death and after you finish in a Flourish into a Giant.
Person 1- It's the Marching Band Cheerleaders
Person 2- Oh yea
Me- *hitting person with flag rhythmically to satisfaction* I'm in Color Guard
