Everybody whose anybody in the north Quadrant of Montague County has vanished to Denton’s North Texas stadium for Nocona’s Play-Off Game . The Streets of Nocona look like a Montana mining town .
If only I were inclined to long drives and late hours, I’d attend the game ….but then I learned late today that KBAN will broadcast the game ….but who has an A.M. radio anymore ? Then I remembered the vintage 93 Cheyenne in the drive-way .. The plan came together ….
Great strides were taken to capture the tail-gate atmosphere of being at the game …I boiled Ball-Park franks for half-time hot dogs … Nacho cheese and chips on a paper plate …and a couple of cokes for wetting the hoarse whistle when the game gets tight….. I even stuck a huge baking sheet in the freezer to replicate sitting on aluminum bleachers ..
I pulled the Shy-Ann up near the porch-light , and adequately tested 1410 for reception .. all is ready for the BIG game !… I then asked Carolyn if she’d jump and cheer in a short skirt alongside the truck… she said the men in white coats could cheer when they come to pick me up …
Anticipation is building like that of a new bride …Kick-Off is coming …this plan is undoubtedly brilliant , I’ve got all the traditional amenities of being at the game , plus smoking in the stands…Utopia !
