What a way to start. Straughn High School played Red Level High School last night. The original game was scheduled for Thursday night. It originally drew a very large crowd owing to the fact that it is an intense rivalry but drought ravaged south Alabama has finally began to get much needed rain. Now mind you a simple rain does NOT postpone a football game. A blazing thunderstorm with lightening that knocks out power over a 30 or so mile area does. The return match up was amazing. Boys who do not get paid and may not ever play again once their high school career is over gave it their all. These are teams that mind you have cousins playing each other. Kids who after the game is over shake hands and ride through town. The final score was Straughn 15 Red Level 12. Last year ladies and gentleman the score was 40 to nothing Red Level with the bragging rights for a year. This year Straughn has that right. Believe me as soon as the final second ticked off the cell phones were out and calls being made to those who were unfortunate enough not to be in attendence. My daughter first called her grandmother (who is a Red Level Alumni)then called her brother who is a Senior at Straughn.
WHO HOO!!! STRAUGHN TIGERS RULE!!!!
