They have a beautiful stadium for sure! I like the way that old building is back there. Would be cool if it’s a tradition for the team to come out the front doors and down the stairs to the stadium. That would be a cool entrance. I appreciate the history of their stadium as well. Two worthy opponents in the finals.
Yea it’s pretty funny if you go to the El Paso alumni page. They been talking smack about Bluefield, the community, and the state. I also saw them talking about how they only have 600 people at football games now. They don’t know or understand the tradition and history here. They are really dumbfounded by what’s going on. No way could this little town beat them. It’s pretty funny IMO
Mitchell Stadium has made it to the finals for the best high school stadium in America. We've won over some big names, and big city's. How cool would it be to be able to attach that title to our hometown.
Would probably help bring the State Championship game to Mitchell.
Please go vote... early and often... as many times as your fingers can click
If there are any runners on the board, or anyone that is interested in obstacle course racing, there is a Spartan race in Charlotte in 3 weeks. We have a team of about 60 local SWVA Spartans going down for it. I'm in with the Spartan race team and have been known to score some good discounts. I have a 50% off code right now. It's a lot more fun then just running, and you probably know someone on the team that is doing it....
there was an ad in the paper for a full contact Beaver / Graham alumni game... done by gridiron-wars.com. I've looked around to see if there was a thread on this already but didn't find it.
anyone considering it? I'm in pretty good shape and run half marathons and ~think~ I could do it... my parents and wife said they would like to see me do it and that they would pay my entry fee. does anybody have any info on it?
when Graham can win a game against Beaver, then Graham can have the right to call it Graham / Beaver... we won it last year, we get the naming rights -- BEAVER / graham
I can't make the game... have 2 tickets to the Monday night VT vs GT game if anyone is interested... $75 each... around the 10 yard line, about 6 or 8 rows back from the away side bench. send me a PM if interested... they'll probably go quick
are you looking for something to do on August 11th? do you like old cars, or tricked out mini-trucks? do you like watching skateboarders? do you like watching motorcycle stunt riders? OF COURSE YOU DO!!!!!
the 3rd annual Down 4 Dennis car show, skateboard, and motorcycle stunt show is August 11th at the Mercer Mall in the JCPenny's parking lot.
this is a fun for everyone, family friendly event... lots of vendors from the car/truck industry, as well as coverage by Mini-Truckin magazine.... lots of food... lots of prizes - including the grand prize of a 50 inch flat screen TV. it starts at 9:00, and the stunt sessions are at 12:00 and 2:00.
all money raised goes to fix up the skateboard park at the Princeton Rec Center
Ryan - did you buy some tickets off me before? against East Carolina maybe??? the 1st game after April 16
I'm taking Thurs off from work, and will be driving down from Princeton around 4 or 5 I think. I'm in the CRC beside the airport. it's like a 5 min walk to the stadium. you could hang with me and the wifey
I can't make out what that picture is... what is it?
I'll have to check the tickets when I get home...
do you tailgate? I work in the CRC, and they said I could park here for free... don't need a tag or anything... just tell them I work here, and show my ID.
