Friday Night Football
Friday Night Football Friday night football - the night everybody is getting ready for. I can smell the grassy field and the sweaty players. It’s five o’clock and I’m getting ready for the game. Taking my time with everything and making sure everything is perfect, from every single strand of hair being in the right place to making sure there are no wrinkles in my uniform. As I look at the clock, it says 5:45, I better hurry up because I have to be at the game at 6, and I still have to pick up your friend. I hurry out the door and speed down the road. As I race down the road, I’m looking everywhere to make sure there’s not a cop anywhere. I finally get to my friend’s house and wait for her. She comes running out of the house and gets in my car. As I go down the road, she is still putting her make-up on, making sure it is to her perfection. Finally, we reach the football field. We run down to the field, making sure we aren’t late, but by the time we get to the field, our make-up is running down our faces and our hair is frizzed up. No one is there yet, just the football player’s warming up and us. There is Jock Jams playing in the background to help get the players motivated. We start warming up so that we make sure everything looks good. By this time it is 6:30, thirty minutes to kick-off. Everyone is starting to arrive. The band starts marching down the track, playing our school fight song. Also, in the background you can hear the players warming up to their most famous beat. By this time it is 6:50, time for the anthem to be played. As I hear the announcer come on the speaker, everything comes to a hush. It’s silent and the only thing I can hear are the cars in the distance driving down the interstate, and the bugs flying around your head. Through the scratchy speakers, I can hear the announcer ask everyone to please rise for the National Anthem. At this time I hear the crowd rise from the bleachers, and a wave of silence hovers over them as the band starts playing. I can feel the tension from the players as they stand in silence. Looking at them, I can see the steam rise from their heads, from warming-up. I can feel the muggy, warm air, the stickiness on my skin like dried syrup all over my body. As the band brings the anthem to an end, the football players run out to the middle of the field, like a herd of animals. It’s now time for the game to start. The crowd starts cheering, and we all line up to get ready for the kick-off. The referee blows his whistle. Time for the night to begin. As the kicker kick the ball, I can hear the crowd roaring and the players hitting each other with their pads. The other cheerleaders sound like mice screaming at each other, they’re not together, and they all look like 20 ants running around. The coaches are yelling at the players as they run out to the field. The players are calling out plays as if they really know what plays they are calling out. The band is playing in the background, trying to play our school fight song and “My Girl”. As I look at the scoreboard the clock runs down 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 half time. It’s time for us to do our thing now. We line up in our formation, and get ready to start our routine. As I look up at the stands, everyone is watching us, as we get ready to perform. I can feel the butterflies in my stomach, as I stand there waiting for the captain to start the routine. Finally she calls ready. We go though our routine so smoothly. There are no flaws and the crowd loves it. Finally, our routine comes to a close. As we finish, the crowd is cheering for us, as they look at us in amazement. Once we finish our routine, we go up to the concession stand and grab us a hot bowl of chili and a cup of hot chocolate. We hurry back down to the field as we stuff our faces with chili. As we get back down to the field, I look at the scoreboard to see how much time is left of halftime. We have 2 minutes to finish our chili, and warm up for the second half. As we finish warming up the players line up to get in the kick off position. It’s now time to start the second half. We are losing right now, but only by one touchdown. The crowd is going crazy to help pump up the players. By now is it freezing outside and all I can think about is getting inside and taking a hot shower. The players line up for the last play of the night. We have the ball and are only 10 yards from the goal line. Everyone is focused on the game now, as we watch the play. The quarterback gets the ball and throws it to the receiver that is wide open. The receiver sprints to the goal line, as the clock runs down. Touchdown!!!! We win the game. Everyone is screaming and cheering for the football team. As the night comes to an end, one of the players comes up to me and tells me there is a party going on after the game at his house. He tells me to invite everyone. Well I guess the nights not over yet. I jump into my car, with four of my other friends and drive to the player’s house. As we pull into the driveway of the player house we can see that tonight is going to be a blast. Friday night football – a night to remember. Bibliography:
