Yea, the money was raised rather quickly for her to show the game.
I'm a parent of a player on the team (had two but one graduated last year) and I can say that I loved the streaming for the fact that my boys grandparents in PA and FL could tune in a see their grand kids play football on Friday night. I'll bet between them, aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends of the family my boys had 2 dozen folks watching those games.
Now what I hated about the streaming was that there was "able body" folks sitting in restaurants in Appomattox or having friends to their homes on Friday nights to watch the game. That left a lot of empty seats in the bleachers, seats that the kids looked up and saw empty. Sure there are those in Appo with health issues or just older folks that can't take the cold this time of year. LOVE the streaming for them. But even Coach Smith (who I think most folks them know of him have respect for) has even asked that people come out to the game to support the kids.
In saying all that. Those folks from Graham, please enjoy the live stream and feel free to stay home. 😀😀
Nah... Prayers for a safe trip for all you traveling.
Well here is one old Graham fan traveling to the game from Staunton so save me a handicap parking spot and seating spot for my wife and I because streaming or not we are coming to the game.
What’s this got to do with the comment about beating a D1 team with a high school team? Graham is better hands down but they are not on a level to beat a college team. Seriously?! Your comment is so far off the subject.
What an absolutely idiotic statement to make about a relatively small 2A school in southwest VA. You really haven’t been to many football games and seen the teams that have Lester’s talent all over the field. Yes Graham is way better than Central but it was a 2 score game more than halfway through the 3rd. Graham has so many athletes all over the field but they’d be lucky to score against UVA-WISE. And they had a really bad year. I’m all for supporting your team but this is just ridiculous.
But what was central doing during this time with the ball. Nothing.
Update. Stay tuned. Evidently this one fan wasn't the only one upset at the horn during the cadence. Monday, Graham will file an official complaint with the VHSL not on the horn, but on the horns use during the cadence and snap.
Stay tuned.....we can revisit this thread Monday afternoon after the official complaint is sent, then we can talk about "who cares" about the use of the horn. Blow the horn and have fun. Blow it repeatedly during the cadence, and you will get dealt with. Union crossed the line. They also got shi* kicked 48-7
Right or wrong understand one thing we won the people on here did not blow the horn. The persons who did probably are not on here and if they are will not accept any wrong doing in the matter. You are entitled to your opinion which you have stated.and only need to state once.no need to argue with everyone.you made your point leave it there and let the rest fall into place. Wait and see if what you say is going to happen on Monday happens does.then see what the outcome is and go from there.
I remember Lee bringing their horse, train horn and inflatable to The Park over the years. Several other teams have been allowed to bring their inflatables. I think this particular situation is unique. Graham requested that Union's train horn not be brought to Bluefield. It wasn't. An air horn was. Very clear that these 2 devices are different. If Graham's AD thought the air horn was a train horn AFTER hearing it so many times last year then he needs to get his hearing checked. IMHO, I think he became angry when he realized he was outsmarted.
Had he spoke to Union's AD or Principal and they came over, which would have been very appropriate, it would have been a completely different situation. I don't think anyone is questioning Graham's right to not have a loud artificial noise maker, brought by the opposing team, at their home stadium. They clearly have that right. However, sending 3 cops over was very low class.
The police are west wirginia police not Virginia police they control the stadium
Sorry Union _FAN,,YOUR rabbit already jumped out Friday night,,Graham wins,Wolfpack will beat Wise Central..We will most likely host Radford,all way to State..Watch &See.
One should never count their chickens until they hatch. You have to win this week Graham would have to win and you would have to then beat Graham to be able to host Radford or beat union if they beat Graham. That is a lot of ifs.
Oh no, they’re deleting posts from that alumni page, called us trolls, shameful, no pride, low character....we aren’t stopping! We’re running up that vote count now!!!!! Refresh, vote, refresh vote!!!
it's possible he had been warned before... maybe even before last night. It's not like Richlands goes out and hires WV refs when Graham comes to town.
So I guess they carry a little black book on every kid ithat that they ref for that may have been warned in a game and or remember from a game that they did not cover that he had been warned like uh yeah I doubt it.

So then guess you do not have the courage to acknowledge the fact that you are pulling against your region and cannot say Graham
