I’ve seen the future of high school football at Al Bohrer Field this season.
And it has nothing to do with the play on the field. Or the field itself for
that matter. The artificial surface trend in the MSL doesn’t appear to be
spreading to the FVC any time soon.
No, it is the vendors at Cary-Grove home games this year. I’m talking
baseball-style, “Popcorn, get your fresh popcorn here” vendors.
They’re roaming the stands on both sides of the field and appear to be
students wearing trays, some with popcorn, some with water and some with
Gatorade.
And I say, it is quite brilliant. Now, I really can’t believe schools
haven’t done this sooner when you consider some of the long lines you see at
concession stands during big games. Of course, every game is a big one at C-G.
