yeah, i definitely didn't realize this was going on tonight. i just went over to the doyt in hopes to get some new photos of all the new stuff there... and saw a sign that said "$5 parking" and a guy standing there.

oops.

i drove past and took alumni dr. around and saw that there were a whole bunch of people over there. that's when i remembered the high school games.

ohhh well. looks like i'll get my photos next week. it's too bad too. the weather is perfect right now to get some good pics.

Pull a Falconboy and go grab some pictures after the half.

Hopefully our "game administrator" can get an American flag up for tonights game!!! That is about as bad, maybe worse, than not having footballs, at a high school fgootball game!!!

A) - Hosting HS games is is a relatively new trend for BG, faux pas are to be expected IMO.

B) - Whose to say that it was BGSU's responsibility to supply a flag? The only thing they're really doing is renting the facilities. It's my opinion that the home team is responsible for all other facets of the game day environment.

In my book, an American flag should be part of the facility!!!

Actually, I'd think that it should fly there regardless of game days or not. It's a building with people working in and around it, and there's a flag pole...

I"m a flag waving liberal and nothing tears me up more than improper use of the flag- leaving it up in the rain, not lighting it night, keeping it at the same height as other flags- are my major pet peeves with flag usage.

So when they came to play the national anthem, and people were supposed to turn towards the flag, did they all just start spinning around in circles until they passed out?

Lets not forget flying a flag with rips and tears.

And Olympic athletes that want to wrap themselves in the flag and then go strutting around the track and flexing and making complete idiots out of themselves...they really infuriate me.

They all faced Burger King across the road where the flag was flying.
