University of Tennessee at Knoxville. Youth games from 3rd through 8th grade -- they'd play 6 games girls and six games boys alternating until the last games of the day were the 8th grade games. I'd rather have started with the older kids, but nobody asked me.

Youth football back then paid $20/hour or a fraction of an hour. We'd work 43 games and walk out with $120 to $140 dollars. Football was (and probably still is) king.

My minimum "leave the house" check these days is probably about $20 to $25. I wouldn't work for $10.
