Before coming to UGA, I was a huge LSU fan. My mother went to LSU, so I was exposed to LSU football at an early age. I loved watching LSU football on Saturdays, and still do. I would spend most of my Saturdays during the fall on the couch with my dad and brother watching LSU play.

With my love of LSU football, I felt as if I could never learn to like another team.

2 Friday's ago, my mom took me to the DSHS football field so I could be ball boy for the high school football team. When I got there I got a huge surprise from my mom and dad. My dad told me to go to another one of the coach’s computer and click on the Microsoft Word. When I read it I was in shock. The computer read something like, “Davis and Carson you are going to see the Tigers play!” and it had a picture of Cowboy Stadium. I knew instantly that it meant we were going to the LSU vs. TCU game, which was the next day. I was so excited, even though I tried to hold my excitement in. It was going to be my second LSU road game, but my first ever LSU neutral site game.

Just as I expected to see, when I pulled up to the game the whore entire Prichard, AL was squeezing into that one small high school stadium. I grew so tired of waiting in line I eventually left before I stepped foot into the stadium. Even the walk back to my car was abnormal because I had to go the distance just to find a parking spot. You would think it was a concert from all of the car headlights blinding you or a college football game with all the tailgaters. People screaming random things but the only thing you could make out was, “Go, Run, Run, Run”! It is impossible to go to a Blount and Vigor game and not see at least one familiar face in the crowds.

I took a look at the bright scoreboard 14-14 we were tied. They threw a perfect pass and got a touchdown the score was now 14-20 we were now on offense I got up and huddled up with the coach we went over a plan.

The crowd roaring behind us caused the bench to shake I got up and hugged my

At kickoff the student section was rowdy as usual, calling obnoxious chants and getting in trouble with the new athletic director and Mrs. Moore. Although they were the same chants I had heard a thousand times before, somehow being a senior made them seem more real. Almost like this time when the boys heard them, it would do some good. The first half of the game went by so quickly, but I guess time flies when you’re having fun. Campus scored the first touchdown early in the second quarter and made their field goal, putting themselves on the scoreboard first. It was a little disheartening, but nothing could kill our spirit. At the beginning of the third quarter, Kade made a touchdown and our confidence was restored.

People have always loved to play games. The human race has created hundreds of thousands of games to entertain themselves and to compete with one another. The most beloved games are those of physical sports. One of these sports, that has become a worldwide phenomenon, is the game soccer. The entire world gathers every four years to send out their best team, and to see which country is the ultimate champion. To play the game of soccer, there needs to be referees to ensure that the players are safe and are following the rules. Though this was once a highly respected position, in Virginia, working as a referee is no longer worth the time, due to a lack of respect, no support system, and the constant variations and changes to the rules.

Liam Craig dashes after a white frisbee as it darts through the air. He leaps and catches the disc while simultaneously crossing the goal line into the end zone.

Soggy soccer fields and bare feet made an entertaining combination as people slid and fell multiple times during the game.

As a theater artist, I’ve never had time for sports. I looked at the world and it’s people through the eyes of a Shakespeare geek, and thought throwing around a ball and cheering for people wearing certain colors was a waste of time. Never in my wildest dreams would I think of giving football the time of day, but that was before I became a mascot. By some kind of luck and desperation for a job I have ended up as the Piper: the red and grey sports mascot of Hamline. Through this job I have come to see how sports can help bring together diverse groups of people, and inspire the spectators to be their best selves.

People were losing hope in the last quarter leading to a final score of 38-17. Walking down to the field to congratulate the team on their twelve and one season, tears began to roll down my face as I saw our seniors shedding some tears of their own. It was an emotional night for many people and it will be a night I personally will never forget. Fall, Friday nights in Tupelo, Mississippi is the time of year when I am most in my comfort zone. Getting dressed with anticipation for every home football game and cheering on The Tupelo Golden Wave is the best feeling. I do not care what people think of how I dress, how I paint my face, how I dance, or how loud I cheer I know I’m doing what I love and no one can stop me.
