CHARGERFAN Posted October 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2017 How are the visitor's stands at South Gibson? Covington will bring a nice crowd, and we find a big variation in the visitor seating. Some places, like Milan, provide nice bleachers for visitors. Lausanne in Memphis, however, had almost more seating on the visiting team's bench than in the visiting stands. I recall that the old Dyer County visitor's side was tiny, and had tree limbs that hung down to block your view if you sat in the wrong spot. Of course, they built a really nice new stadium there a number of years ago, so I'm talking ancient history here. Still, visitors never know what to expect, .

I haven't been there for a couple years, but they aren't exactly the biggest. Usually for big games the school brings in additional seating, but I would suggest that visiting fans be prepared for small bleachers.

Visitor side is not the biggest in the region but we have yet to host a game this year that it was completely full... I know that Covington travels really well so you guys might be the first!!!! I wish our team was going to be playing full strength. We have 1 of our best defenders out because of the ejection in the McNairy game and now we a couple of our other really good defenders out with the stomach bug! The kids I am talking about are in the top 5 in tackles.......... Hopefully Covington got the same stomach bug!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be honest with you. I thought the mayor was a complete jerk when all that happened. Didn't particularly like him. New mayor is a class act. No doubt Yalls facilities have improved greatly. Just stirring the pot a bit. By the way... enjoyed you and Bass and Dan on the radio the other night for the middle school game. Great job.

bglass Posted October 13, 2017 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 I think it will be a close game for sure. What concerns me is that our kids have been on fall break this week. I just hope they stay focused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Barhum kid that is in the 8th grade is going to be a player for you guys in the future! This is going to sound crazy but he made 75% of the tackles.... Also your current freshman class has a couple of really good players in it as well. Its going to be really interesting to see how Milan does when morris calls it quits.
