Scalped by BG ticket prices

Posted by bob hammerstrom

So what do you get for three bucks these days - one pound of propane to heat my house, a gallon of milk, a subscription to The Telegraph, but not admission into a basketball game at Bishop Guertin High School. That will cost you five BIG ONES.

Posted by bob hammerstrom

One of the school budget-trimming proposals out there will eliminate the current junior high athletics as they are today, and replace them with intramural-style sports.

If you drove by Spaulding High School last night, you probably slowed down for a second look to see if that mud wrestling going on last night in the pouring rain.
