BigDave Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Just a topic to fill the slow moments, could be the way somebody was dressed, a band mishap, or anything else out of the ordinary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marinedad55 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Heard a miched official in a playoff game say after a penalty " first down at the 52 yard line". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flukeshot Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 I saw a kid run up to take the kickoff and whiff, but I guess the wind generated in the attempted caused the ball to fall off the tee. He picked it up and started to put it back on for another go at it but the ref ruled it down right there. Thought that was kind of amusing.

Five0pd310 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 As a drum major was leading the band down field during halftime, her skirt fell completely off and she finished the show in her bloomers. She handled it like a champ, though....never missed a step! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cotton84 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Years ago at the Cotton Bowl. High school playoff game in about 45-50 degree weather. A band was on the field at halftime performing and the automatic sprinklers came on and soaked the band. Of course it was not funny to the band, the parents and a few others.

OA5II Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Saw a team attemp an onside kick. The kick gets about 7 yards with a weird spin and then takes a funnny bounce and ends 9 yards behind the line they kicked and goes out of bounds at the 31. Add 5 yards and receiving team gets ball defense 26 to start the drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Wasnt a game but a practice. We have a hill overlooking the practice field at Harmony. Anybody can drive up and watch. Well one fella decided he had enough watching and wanted to participate. He runs over to where the wideouts are running routes, hops in line barefooted and starts acting like Jerry Rice. Hooping and a hollering. I dont know how many of y'all know or remember Coach Jed Whitaker. He's a big man. When I tell you that man was moving, he was hauling to get that fella off his field. Long story short, stay off the meth kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeNotMe Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 If you've been to Quitman for a ballgame in the past 5 years or so, you've probably heard Jimmy-Anne yelling on the home side, BUT HAVE YOU SEEN HIM/HER?! Jimmy-Anne is near 6'3'' and around 280 with a long blonde wig and high heels on occasion. Rumor has it that he/she played ball at Southlake Carroll and even coached some on the high school level. He/she is always yelling, "Where's my linebackers?" "You've gotta block if you wanna win!" and "I hope we brought our track shoes!" A few games ago, Jimmy-Anne wore a shirt that had the records of the past 3 seasons on the back (2-8, 2-8, 0-10), and he/she claims to be supportive. Jimmy-Anne also rings a cowbell like nobody's business, and 1 thing that Quitman could definitely use less these days is "more cowbell." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foreveraneagle Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 About 7 or 8 years ago (maybe longer) a student from Van ran streaking through the Canton bands performance. Most of us were stunned and it took a few seconds to realize what exactly was happening. Officer and principal chased him for awhile and finally caught up with him. He had on socks and a sock hat where you could see only his eyes and mouth. Made Van proud that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackflag79 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 I once saw a punt just before halftime that didn't make it to the line of scrimmage (a replay shows it crossed, but...the ref didn't see it that way), a player from the punting team picked up the ball and ran it about 65 yards for a TD. The defense had already given up on the play, and before they realized the whistle hadn't blown it was too late. Crazy play. I never knew the punting team could advance a punt..., and apparently our players didn't either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about that field goal in that college game that was blown back into the field of play? At least I think it was a college game... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slickarick Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Had a fumbled be ruled a "tie" the ref could not determine who had possession and be given back to the offense. Never realized there were jump balls and possession arrows in football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish it was earlier in the season because THAT is worth a trip to Quitman to see even if they are 0-10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BulldogzSuperFan Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Small East Texas 2A. Multiple coaches texting on the sidelines during live play on the field during a varsity game. Needless to say those coaches got non-renewed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackflag79 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 I also saw a phenomenal play many years ago. A running back for Gladewater named Delmonico Montgomery broke through the line of scrimmage with nobody near him. It looked like a for sure 60 yard + touchdown, when a Gilmer corner named Red Jones came from his corner position about 20 yards away ran him down from behind, took the ball away from him just inside the 10-yard line, and ran it back almost to midfield. To this day, I've never seen a faster player on a high school field than Red. I just wish his son, who plays for the Buckeyes now was as fast as his dad was. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
touchdownlsu Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Who was playing I can't remember if that's where it was or not?It was this year. Navarro and kilgore college. Navarro was attempting an extra point. KC blocked it, recovered the ball and started running with it. He got into a pile up and then fumbled and the ball rolled back into the endzone and then out of bounds. After a long discussion between the refs, they ruled a 1 point safety.
