High School Football Prediction
Heck, let's make it a sports' day…
High school football recaps were previously relegated to the very last page of the local sports section of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. But in the age of the Internet, if you do something boneheaded enough, you can turn your team into a national sensation.
Watch the first couple minutes of the clip above and you'll see one of the silliest fumbles ever recorded on video: A player spikes the ball in victory, only to have it ruled a live ball, giving the other team a chance to recover for a touchdown.
At the 2:23 mark, student Tom Lacy predicts, "That was crazy. That's gonna be on YouTube."
Who says football players are dumb? He was dead right! As of post time, the clip is approaching the half-million views mark on only its second day gracing the web.
Maybe your high school glory days really can live on… But don't count on it.
