It's miserable. Seriously, until the end of October games start at 7:30 and lots of fans don't arrive until after sundown. The cheerleaders hug the stands for shade and the players have mist fans and cold towels.Do HS football games in like Texas and Florida and other hot statesstart late? Or what do you do about the heat? It was like 100 today and they moved the game to 7:30 and had mandatory water breaks for the players. We were sweating so much, it was disgusting. I can't imagine that being the norm... Our first game or two are always sweaty and gross but it was especially bad tonight.
What amazes me is the band is still in full uniform with no mist fans. Last year they finally let them march in shorts and polos the first few games. I'm always worried about the refs running the whole game in long pants.
Then the next weeks game is 30 degrees and everyone is in their cars watching with the heater on!
Gotta love Texas bi-polar weather.
