High School Football Fans
\n Our 12-year old son is on his 7th Grade modified football team, so, we\u2019ve been attending all his scrimmages and games. They actually won a game\u2026The first one in three years. Then, the coach said they should march in the Homecoming Parade to show school spirit and support. Of course, there was a Varsity football game afterwards, so we attended that, too.
\n It was actually an exciting game. The visitors pulled ahead early in the game to 6-0 and stayed that way for most of the first half. We noticed that our Quarter Back wasn\u2019t really good at throwing passes, but he knew how to scramble for a QB Keeper. We suspected he was a Senior and the coach wanted him to play, being his last year in high school. Late in the third quarter, another Quarter Back, possibly a Junior, came in and absolutely fired up the team. He threw for long yardage and completed passes. It was fabulous and the multitude went crazy. The 2010 Wayne Homecoming football game ended in a 7-8 victory for the home team.
\n The only unpleasant aspect of this high school sport event was the unsportsman-like behavior of several parents in the stands. Two blokes next to us, who were probably in their mid-30\u2019s, were overly loud, foul mouthed, and obnoxious. Perhaps he was angry his son didn\u2019t get to play in this game. Maybe his nephew got called on being off-sides. I\u2019ll never know, but maybe, too, his son was the one the people behind us said was a good player, except for his bad temper and foul mouth.
\n The bloke left early and I hope that the first, unclaimed 50-50 number for $188 was his.
