I don’t do football but Joe does! Drew and I are home today being lazy while Joe is running the chains at the Uni Dome in Cedar Falls. Our high school football team made it to the State semi finals and are playing today. These four good looking guys run the chains for the the home football games and were asked to run the chains today at the game. They consider it an honor to be asked! My dad ran the chains for over 40 years for our high school and at some point during that time he recruited Joe to sub. When Dad finally had to give it up Joe took his place. I remember going to the Dome once when both Dad and Joe ran the chains together. These guys don’t give up their spots willingly – there’s a lot of combined years standing there. A good group of guys for sure who love supporting our boys!
While Joe is having fun, I’m at home with taco soup in the crockpot, his favorite chip dip chilling in the fridge, enjoying the afternoon warm and cozy in the house, checking in on the game as it’s being broadcast live on the Iowa High School Sports Network, and stitching up some cupboard tucks. Not a bad way to spend a Saturday.
