⚾ 🥎 HS in Japan: Player HBP, apologizes for not getting out of the way, then hits a dinger.

Damn at the crowd!!! Last Spring, I witnessed my alma mater, Corner HS win their first baseball state championship over ACA up at Jacksonville State. It was packed but I’m guessing their stadium only holds maybe 2-3k at most.
Earlier I was thinking about the crowd sizes in Huntsville growing up: specifically the stadium schools like Grissom played. The attendance was on par with the games I've watched here, lately, for The Citadel or CSU.

That game? That looks like it would rival a MLB crowd.

Which high school did you attend in Huntsville? I believe at one time Huntsville City had 5 high schools.

I thought you might find this interesting.

I called my uncle to verify what I remembered. It was roughly $2600 a year to attend my high school when I graduated. '85, right?

My mom taught there. I had free tuition.
 
'twasn't a city school. Berachah.

Looked it up. This is the same drop down board I played on...the door earlier, concession stand. Damn.

Been in Hsv areas since the mid 80s when I went to college at UAH. Had never heard of that school. Looked it up. You were up in North Hsv. Interesting part of town.

BTW something has changed (may be on my end). When I post or reply to a post the first two lines or the original text is shifted then the rest of the text is left aligned. Any ideas what that might be?

Yeah. I changed the layout. Eliminated some dead space under the user info box. I'm about to really rearrange the private messaging UI

Interesting, because it is on top of a cave? When the school was built it was what I'd call "upper middle class" neighborhood. What ya mean?

If I am looking at the right location it shows around sparkman and pulaski pike. That is not an upper middle class area anymore. Most of the upper middle class is spread out all over now. The north central part is low to middle class based area.

Yep. The third house down was the house the school owned...I could tell you about his daughter. The house on the corner...left, NE, parsonage. I biked all over that area as a kid. Had a bike a school and one at home. Been in the caves...

Tellin' ya..lived there, almost. Six to six every day.

Parsonage? Uh oh, we already know about Terry and preachers’ daughters!
