Be careful here, mjbofficial. What you experienced very possibly had nothing to do with your race and may simply have everything to do with poor game administration. Middle schools, at least in places where I have lived, are not really known for wonderful game administration. You may not have felt as "welcomed" as you'd like, but it may have more to do with a lack of volunteers or professionalism than your race (since you posted this in this particular thread, that's the implication I took).
