Agreed. I'm sure that there are state, or local, organizations that you have belonged to that have interpreted cloth ribbons tied with a bow to be illegal, but it's not supported by any national rule set that I know of, and certainly not by any NFHS rule, casebook play, or interpretation, that I'm familiar with. So when you come to the Constitution State, we will allow you to wear ribbons tied in a bow in your hair, and the ribbons can be any pretty color that you choose because these are hair control devices, not headbands.
Good debate, lots of fun, reminds me of Jurassic Referee debates. Man, I miss him.

I seem to recall the same interpretation. C'mon Nevadaref, you're the king of archived NFHS interpretations, can't you come up with this one, and bring some closure to this thread.
