Pretty sure I know the answer but I'm asking anyway.

Let's say I buy a song for our halftime show and it has 100 measures. Then we change nothing but only play measures 1-50.
How much trouble am I in?

As long as you don't change the arrangement, you're perfectly fine.

None. You're playing an excerpt. That's perfectly allowable.
