Thanks to all. While the football part is going to be fun, the Army really does this thing up big and the sideshow alone is worth the price of admission. This year they are bringing in about 100 wounded servicemembers to take part in a pregame tribute to the American soldier. It will be a chance for the kids (and I suspect an adult or 2 to personally thank them for their service).
Although these kids are some of the best HS senior footballers in the nation, that alone is not enough to get them in this game. There is a vetting process which ensures they are also good character kids. I'm looking forward to working with them.
I'll be the F and with any luck will stay so far ahead of the play I can stay out of view most of the time.
