Friday Night Lights

In our never-ending search for cheap family activities, we went to the Capitol High School Homecoming Football Game last night. Capitol High is most likely the high school that the kids will go to given it's proximity to our nieghborhood, and is a football powerhouse right now. They are in first place and it was easy to see why, as they won 40-6 over Centennial High.

The thing that makes this an even cooler thing to do on a Friday night is that they play their home games under the lights at Bronco Stadium as the school doesn't have a lighted football field. This means we can see a game on the BSU turf for $10.00 as opposed to $100.00+. For the students, it means that the BSU coaches watch most of their home games (Coach Pete was there last night) and more than the schools fair share of football players end up playing for the Broncos.

We saw a few people we knew from the nieghborhood in the stands and we know a couple of the players from home as well, so it was a lot of fun and something that we will probably do another couple of times before the end of the season.

Go Eagles!
