BtmJm Cmdium Bleacher creatures are a unique breed of people who attend games for a variety of reasons: to cheer on the team, to meet guys girls from other schools, to watch their boyfriend girlfriend or son daughter play, or just to socialize with their friends. Basketball games are the most popular among bleacher creatures, with dedicated fans attending every game and travelling all over central Illinois in the dead of winter to watch the Warriors play. However, creatures can also be found at volleyball, softball, and baseball games (devoted fans will remember the Williamsville game when they would have frozen to death had it not been for those blankets), and track and cross country meets (which can also get pretty cold). But rain or shine, sleet or hail, heat or cold, you can always be sure of one thing — There will be bleacher creatures!
