My trip to a HS B'ball game

Thought the EHS Alums would find this a bit different experience than when they were in school. Got there in time to blow up the balls for the JV game. 22 Cheerleaders on hand for this game. At half time, 16 JV dancers perform. Then the varsirty game starts. Again, 22 new Cheerleaders and at half time 16 new Varsity dancers. For thegame the students stand and jump like at Duke and the band blares on. Incidentally, we beat East side 40 to 38 withe ball in the air when the backboard turned red. Some very confusing things about the two games. The JV team dressed only 8 boys. The varsity dresses 16 with only 2 of the JV players and only 9 of the 16 get into the game. One varsity player is a freshman and he played a total of about 5 minutes. Coach Waldo has won over 500 games but he overcoaches by screaming at the players and 1 mistake and out. Thought you would like to know how man y people are involved for a game. It is a very entertaining evening and we seniors get in free so I cant be too critical. Happy Sunday to all Norm
