Father Judge Fan

Uploaded: October 13, 2013

Description


----
It was Half Time at yesterday's Philadelphia Catholic League High School Football Game. It was tauted as THE Game of the year: Archbishop Ryan was playing Father Judge. The score was even: 14-14.
----
Stands on both sides of the field were almost full--something not seen by me in two years of photographing high school football. Excitement was palpable in the air.
-----
I was walking up the stadium stairs to have a half-time pit stop, when I encountered these "Super Fans."
