I already told you that we won our game on Friday night! Maddy had never been to a home game before but you can tell she's got the spirit when you see this picture, taken at the pep rally held just outside the stadium pre-game. Usually we buy a meal from the Wildcat Booster Club before the first game but they were all sold out. That meant we didn't feel guilty taking a free meal from Matthew Shepherd's campaign. He is a candidate for state representative. Matthew is a very nice young man and has several connections to our family: he was the Wildcat QB while Jimmy was a Wildcat coach; he is a lawyer in the office where Julie worked for several years; he and his family go to church with the Junior Johnsons. Last year, as we were tailgating before the state championship game, we set up Stephen's wonderful gumbo next to Matthew's tent. He was handing out Wendy's chili, which was good but could not compare to Stephen's cooking! Many people thought our group was part of the campaign effort and we did not bother to correct them.
DanMan was just a little nervous before kick-off. I took many more pictures of him pacing than these two but you get the idea!
This picture, taken just before kick-off, shows our wonderful new turf! EHS fans are so very proud of our brand new field!!!
