Blaclc and while slriped ol- licials huddling wilh lhe coaches. And lhe slands, a sea ol color, bobbing and swaying lo lhe will ol lhe cheerleaders. You brealhe deeply ol lhe lrosly air. You yell a lillle, sing a lillle, and clap lo lhe rhylhm ol lhe band. Then you lislen as lhe songs and yells ol lhe visiling school drill loward you lrom across lhe lield. Sud- denly a shrill whislle culs lhe air. Players on lhe lield lhin oul lo lwo opposing leams. The band plays and all heads lurn lo lhe rising llag. Il is nearly game lime. Eleven men deployed in a lhin orange line, lace eleven men in blue spread oul lo receive lhe ball. There is a lense silencei lhen anolher blasl lrom lhe releree's whislle. The long orange line moves lorward -lhe ball rises upi up, and scars loward lhe men in blue. The game is or. The grealesl ouldoor game in lhe world. Foolballl 1959 TIGER fungal 23
