More Sounds of the Season

There wasn't a Christmas season concert tonight, but I did get to hear Carter and the Pep Band play for the basketball season.

Tried as usual to sneak a picture and this was the best I could do before I was spotted and shunned.

Hubby and I had the privilege of working concessions starting with a the freshmen boys game at 4:30 p.m. That was followed by JV and Varsity match-ups versus our rival Wausau Newman. Our JV won and every time we sneaked a peek at the varsity game progress, it was tied or close, the lead going back and forth.

It's always a bummer when people come to the concessions stand and say things like, "Too bad you're stuck here. You're missing a great game." Well, we all have to do a shift so it's better to get ours out of the way early in the season. Plus, we didn't miss ALL the excitement.

We got to see about the last 2-3 minutes of regulation play and then... overtime! So really, it was like the game was starting over for us, but was only 4 minutes long. We ended up losing 56-50.

Too bad the Pep Band was all packed up and gone before the first tipoff. They could have used a little Eye of the Tiger or Gonna Fly Now to get the boys pumped up.

No worries. Lots of season left. For hoops, holidays and harmony.
