Night games! Wow what a memory they are! I remember watching my first night game and thinking this is great! And then playing in the our first night game! Some of my best memories.
I started going to the night games when I was in 5th grade. My older sisters had to take me. Once there though I was on my own! What different times!
The big rivalry then was NS and Solvay. There were always fights and lots going on off the field! I usually tried to stand down near the goal lines. Loved the games!
The walk home through the Village Park was always crazy and my sisters would round me up and take me home! Lots of Fonzys!
I used to get dragged to the Liverpool Friday night games by my LPHS math teacher daughter, but lately it's been my 7 year old grandson who loves going with Papa to CNS games - what a year they're having! Last game he deserted me for the 4th qtr. He went over and said with our 9th grade neighbor and her gang. He had a riot and I enjoyed watching him interact as much as the game. I love watching them growup and come into their own...
Wonder where we would have been had they not spilt the school into Cicero and North Syracuse? I think I would have had a lot less playing time and the team a few more wins. We were good separately but together we would have been awsome. Just my opinion!
CNS almost made it to the state final in football but was beaten by a team in Buffalo area. (Lancaster) Coincidentally, it is the school district my grandchildren attend!
No, mine was purchased by Joe Coffee (I think) That book was my Zeus Presidential Journal that I've kept. Looks like I did make a serious organizational effort haha
