Thanksgiving Football Game at Middletown High School South 2007

Middletown North vs. Middletown South

On Thanksgiving I went over to Middletown High School South to watch the 2007 Thanksgiving game where Middletown South plays there cross town rivals in the annual turkey day football game. You forget how big your town is until you see a good portion of it assembles in one place. What a great experince. Everyone there seemed to be happy. You saw families walking in together just beeming with holiday spirit. I saw thousands of high school students interacting and having a good time, Moms where talking about how they had to leave early to finish cooking or where crying that it was there son or daughters last Homecoming game in high school, Dads where talking about where there sons where going to go next year or what the players of the past have done on Thaksgiving. I saw old friends reunited after having gone away to college and I saw Middletown South destroy North 35-7. I myself saw some teachers and friends I haven't seen in a while. It was as holiday as holiday gets.
