Damn. This reminds me of downtown Mason City on a Saturday night.
If you add all the MC Saturday nights together from the last 10 years, there wouldn’t be as many people in the MC downtown as were at that game and the surrounding area. On the plus side, no one at the game got their face slashed.
@Matt-O.K. on a smaller scale then. And, it is a good thing no one was slashed.
Don’t ya know, you can’t watch football without alcohol. Just think, these people were probably driving a 4000 pound killing machine. Alcohol should be banned from all school activities.
