The Twelfth Plajer ' - jfy Football is thought of us a spectator sport, that is, the players play, and the crowds watch. Yet the crowd plays a major supporting role in the drama unfolding on the field. There are those who abhor the sport of football, actually despise it. So why would a person with such a strong disdain for the event even attend. ' They go to find friends amidst the crowds and huddled masses. Yet even an opponent ol the sport can ' t help to be taken by the thrill of the game. And to say the crowd doesn ' t par- ticipate beyond support is untrue. The harrowing experience of wail- ing in line at the snack bar. swarmed by mere children, is .ill enough to qualify one as a player. ' VJ Then the crowd erupts into a roar. ' One rushes back to the bleachers to ' TViJA find the play is over, and his place yj in line gone. No worry, a friend ' l,, ' says, it was only a 96 yard inter- ception that scored the winning touchdown. So when you next attend a game, or ponder your reasons for attending, think of yourself as a contestant. Let the game lake you away and enjoy the time that you are spending there. Make it seem that without your cheers, the team couldn ' t pos- sibly win. For you, the spectator, make the invisible 1 2th player, that mystical force that puts the team oicr the top. HIGH FNFRGY 219
