21.T-Birds

Over the summer of my junior year my friends and I decided we wanted to make our senior year the best we could. A few weeks before school started we started calling people and asked them if they were interested in joining a student cheer crowd for our football team. After rallying up about 40 to 50 kids we began to make our t-shirts. After our t-shirts were complete we went to the first football game. Knowing that everyone who was at that game who wasn’t a t-bird at the time now wanted to make a shirt and join. This cheer crowd connected many people in our school who would not have hung out with each other if it were for the t-birds. Before the games we would all meet at Boulters parking lot which is a huge warehouse across from our school. Here we would spend all morning grilling hot dogs and hamburgers and then walk over to the game as a group. This group ended up being a huge part of the school. Which teachers and our principle loving what we did, they decided to make it into a club at our school and had t-shirts made for us. When it came to our homecoming game it was very close. With plans of charging the field, we decided to do so. As Thomas stopped the opposing team on their last possession in overtime we lumped and ran over the fences and began to make a huge dog pile in the middle of the field with the players in it to. This is one of my greatest high school memories that I will never forget.
