Shouldn't that mean cannons, whistles, bells, smoke, fireworks and other noisemakers and "special effects" be disallowed? What is the rule and who is responsible for enforcing it? The rules are set out in the IHSAA’s Fall Bulletin. https://www.ihsaa.org/sites/default/files/documents/Fall Bulletin_11.pdf#page17 Here’s what it says: Q. Restrictions Please inform your students and fans that during the game: 1. Banners and posters are not allowed. 2. Battery powered or electronic noise makers, fireworks, recorded music (permissible during- quarter breaks, halftime, and post-game) , sirens or whistles are not allowed. 3. Throwing of articles, including toilet tissue and baby powder, is not allowed. 4. No live animal mascots are permitted at any time. 5. The facility should be as neutral as possible without any enhancements that emphasize a home team. The site manager, who is usually the home team AD, is responsible for enforcing these restrictions. Importantly, the game officials have no responsibility for enforcing these restrictions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn't do the cannon this year because the school said it was due to "insurance". As far as the bell, that doesn't get rang during the game, so no rules ever get broken.

I'll say AC 28 Judson 13. It would not shock me if Judson somehow won the game though. Lol Edited November 16, 2022 by footballer_02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyingHigh Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 As an AC fan, I couldn't care less if they fired off a cannon or rang a bell. If that impacted our guys' ability to take care of business then they weren't going to win anyways. As far as fans having noise makers and whatnot, who really cares??? Obviously the IHSAA is, but if they're truly concerned about neutrality in these games, then they need to be played at neutral sites. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I attended St. Edward in the late 60s, we had a live Golden Eagle (at that time, private ownership of bald eagles was illegal, as they were endangered). It had a wingspan > 6 ft. At the start of basketball games it would fly from one end of the gym to the other, an awesome sight! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalterSobchak Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 22 hours ago, Ballhawk said: Will weather conditions adversely affect one team greater than another? The ball can be slick when it's cold, so does this make this game closer? Does it make any difference? Game time temps will be in the 20s with the lows in the teens. Who will handle the cold better? I think if the field was pretty muddy and it was raining hard. That might slow AC down enough for NJ. North Judson doesn't believe field conditions hurt any teams chances.

We did this in 2014, played LCC, week 8, learned a lot from that game, and starting that next day Saturday and every practice forward we worked the "LCC Script" in preparations for the showdown in week 14, and sure enough we got there, sprinted to 14-0 1st Q lead, that does not happen if we do not put in all that extra time, older and mature teams/staffs can do this quite seamlessly, @Bobref I believe its a BELL, which going back 13 weeks ago, has since been given a good workout Great small town community matchup here, Im rooting for the JAYS, Region 4 squad with a friend of mine at the helm. Hope they get it done, but as always a this time a year never is easy. Leave you with this: " Big time players, make big time plays, in big time games". Huge difference between your 2014 bombers vs the 2020 Jays. You guys could be that cocky or arrogant because nobody was gonna match your teams speed. That Judson team was just simply over confident. They didn't take Winamac serious enough and it back fired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should be a hard fought and exciting game, when both teams are good it's EASY to see either team winning. I don't know why it's that difficult for you to understand. This has nothing to do with covering the bases. Edited November 16, 2022 by WalterSobchak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gridwatcher Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 21 hours ago, Mod22 said: This is WHME TV46 game of the week. With it being Semi State, i don't know if they will livestream it or not but it will air on 46 @ 11:00 Friday night and re-air again Saturday morning @ 9:00. Chuck and Bo in the booth and North Judson's own Charlie Adams roaming the sidelines. Should be a great semi state game and the atmosphere should be incredible. They are not the livestreamers this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, we just try not to acknowledge much from him. Otherwise, we'll hear a story from 2004 where if their top 2 6th graders didn't get hurt, they would of won state in 2005. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
