Central High Football

It was a near-capacity crowd for the showdown between Central and North.
Each year, I try to get all of the girls to at least one Omaha Central football and basketball game. Tonight was the night for football and fortunately, the weather wasn't too cold. It was a bit windy out of the north, so we sat on the south side of the press box, in the upper deck.

Omaha North is the defending Class A state football champion. So we knew it would be a tough game for the Eagles. And, with a few lucky bounces, Central was right in it up until the end. Unfortunately, a potential game-tying touchdown drive ended in an interception as North prevailed, 35-28. But it was a lot of fun.

Who's missing? One of the Central students! (Emily had to work.)
Veronica and I were warm in our nice stocking caps.
Darn.
This was a nice treat waiting at home. Hot chocolate – and more chocolate!
