THANKSGiViNG FOOTBALL GAME

THANKSGIVING FOOTBALL GAME

This Thanksgiving, I attended the high school I graduated from football game. Every year, Freehold plays Colts Neck on Thanksgiving morning. Each year it switches who has home field and this year it so happened to be at my school’s field. Walking down to the field brought back a lot of memories that I had while I was in high school. I remembered walking down to the track for gym, going to watch games while I was in high school, and cheerleading for the football team.
The one main thing that I did was observe everyone. A lot of people where representing for their own high school, either wearing their schools colors, or wearing shirts that had the name of their high school written on them. Each school had their own side of the field. While looking at people in the stands, you saw how everyone was doing something different. Some people appeared to be intrigued by the game and were just sitting there watching, whereas, some people were watching the game in big groups with their friends screaming and cheering loudly for their team. A lot of people were smiling and laughing with their friends. Older people, whether they were teachers, or parents, or just people stopping by to watch the game where there as well. A lot of people were talking but it was hard to make out what anyone was really saying because of all the commotion that was going on in the stands. The band was sitting in one part of the bleachers playing music as different parts in the game. The cheerleaders were standing on the track in front of the bleachers doing cheers and stunts and trying to pump up the crowd.
Overall, it was a good time. The weather was beautiful and everyone seemed to be in good spirits.
