I guess part of the difference here is that 90% of the HS games are on Fridays. Not very many on Saturday, and those that are usually pay like JV (varsity pay here is based on attendance - MOST of these Saturday games are very small schools without their own facilities that play at the "real" stadiums whenever they can get them available - but attendance is negligible).

So we work Varsity on Friday nights and Peewee on Saturdays. I'm actually disappointed when I get a Saturday varsity game - even a JV/V doubleheader - $75-80 for 4 hours of work (and often another hour and a half driving), or $240 cash for 8 hours (5-15 minute drive).
