2000 Fans of the week !
Hey, we know it takes more to make a football game than just 22 guys in pads
and leather balls.
This page is for the fans & cheerleaders who go above and beyond the
call of duty.
Week #14
(1A) Sciota
(Northwestern-LaHarpe) Body paint and correct spelling always gets a photo
op.
(2A) No spelling here just a good time for Tolono
(Unity) fans.
(3A) Harrisburg
players rush the stands? Yep. Thanking the fans for a great season.
(4A) Half naked, wet & coldJoliet (Catholic)fans.
Hey they just won the state title, not to mention being responsible for the
5A champs only defeat.
So what if these end up spending Thanksgiving with their doctor.
(5A) Stand by your man took on a whole new meaning for theChicago (Mt. Carmel)Cheerleaders.
The endured the heaviest part of an all day down pour, just to cheer on their
team.
(6A) Park Ridge
(Maine South) may have had the largest crowd stray
out from under the balcony at UofI,
but there was no doubt that they stayed around the longest.
Ushers were still asking fans to leave as all but one of the stadium lights
were shut off.

Some fans go over the top and bring everything & the kitchen sink to
the games.

It's a tie between the Mustang guys & girls.

Grilling brats and dogs for all takers just past the north
endzone before Mac's home game vs. Marist.

We're not sure what it says about sofas in the endzone in the
IHSA rule book?

Cheerleader Sarah Siegel & the Maine South bleachers.
Maine South fans were acting like it was the state finals in
this double OT thriller.
