I guess 25 years isn't much time, cause outside of people who have kids on the team, in the band or drill team or maybe a relative on the coaching staff, i don't know any one with HS season tickets.

When I lived in Dallas a decade ago, I knew people who had season tickets to their local high school teams. And traveling through some of the smaller towns, everyone in the town was in the local stadium on Friday nights.

When I was in HS at Southlake, the stadium, which was one of the largest at the time, regularly had 13k+ at every home game. Southlake only has 30k people in the town, so almost half of the town went to the game. And the HS only had around 2500 kids.

I remember Southlake played Euless Trinity one year in the playoffs at old Cowboy stadium and had 50k+ there. Some people think it was more.
