Friday Night Lights

Mrs. Teamann (Whitt Principal) and her posse of Whitt Wolves at Wylie Stadium

We attended the game on Friday night ... well we attempted to watch the game on Friday night.  They moved it from 7:30 to 6pm game time to try to avoid the heavy rain.  Although what we found is that there is no way to avoid the thunder and lightening.

When we arrived at the stadium about 5:40 we found they were not letting anyone on the field or in the stands due to the weather.  A little rain these Texans could handle.  It was the lightening that was holding the crowd back.

They would make a call at 6:15 if they planned to wait another 30 minutes or they were calling the game.  So we waited inside the stadium out from under the rain.  So imagine the scene - lots of high school kids, parents, Whitt Night brought out the elementary school kids, marching band .. and oh, the people that were handling out COW BELLS.

It got a little loud in there.  And so just about 6:30 we gave Ellie the choice.  We could stand and wait it out, or we could go home, get dry and in comfy clothes and watch The Voice.  She voted for The Voice.  And we trudged back to the car and eventually dried off!

The game was eventually played.  Whitt won 47-12.
