Homecoming Games haven't changed much




Friday night I went to La Habra High School's Homecoming Game. It was the La Habra Highlanders against Buena Park's Coyotes. Even though Buena Park is only minutes away from La Habra, there were less than 20 people in their stands. It was so sad. Later in the game it was obvious why no one was there. They got creamed. I'm not sure if they ever scored as we left before it was over. (I found out later that they haven't won a game all season.)
I had a great time. Homecoming games haven't changed at all really, except that 4 out of 5 teenagers there were on a cell phone. In my day, only one of my "friends" even owned a pager and it was huge.
Ah, high school takes me back. Some things never change.
