[coonhunter292]

Tomorrow night at Dragon Stadium, any thoughts?

I just hope both teams come out injury free! Good luck to both teams!

Admission is $5.00 per person! Iknow it's crazy!

Per TSSAA Bylaws:

Preseason Scrimmages – A school cannot practice with or scrimmage another school until both schools have practiced a minimum of three days. A school may have a maximum of 4 preseason scrimmages or 2 preseason scrimmage dates or 1 preseason scrimmage date and 2 preseason scrimmages. No tournament format of any type may be used. Preseason scrimmages should look more like practice than games.

 

With that said, do they charge to watch practice? If not, can you charge at a scrimmage?

That is a good question. But this is not the first time i have seen a school charge admission for a scrimmage....last year's Oak Ridge/Maryville scrimmage did the same thing. If i remember correctly, it was 2 or 3 dollars, not 5.

I know some programs are desperate for cash flow but that's just stupid. Not that they would care but it would be fitting if no one showed up. The Clinton administration should be ashamed if this is true. I wasn't surprised at the OR situation considering they have fans like blade.

[coonhunter292]

They are making a big deal about the scrimmage!! I even heard someone say that they were having concessions, I dont know if that is true though. the Anderson County school system is Money hungry! AC and Clinton also charge 7.00 for Game admission!

I called Coach Shattuck after I read this and he said there is no admission charge for the scrimmage. He said the boosters would be selling concessions but that's all.

Concessions is a good idea! Its usually pretty hot and i know i could use a nicely iced beverage of my choice....

[coonhunter292]

Well, it is good to know that there is no charge!

In Oak Ridges defense, some of the coaches in the past have fed the visiting teams. I know this doesn't mean much to the fans that have to pay $2.00 but it does help. Oh and please don't lump all of us Ridgers in with bladerunner.
