There are some things that go on in Mississippi that I did not encounter until this season. There is a meeting before meating with the team captains. Coaches (all 4 varsity coaches if they are there) and the game administrator meet with us. The game administrator introduces him/her self and tells us where they will be, if the police are there, etc. They leave and the R speaks to the coaches. This is the time when the coaches get a card with our names and ID number on them. After that meeting, we meet with the captains.
During introductions, all players come and give us a fist bump. This happens at the high school and college level. There has been one team (JUCO last night) that didn't do this and one team (high school) that insisted on shaking our hands instead of the fist. Good old southern hospitality.
