I just started watching Friday Night Lights and I know its TV but you would think these players were The Beatles. Good show so far though.

Also, every main girl on this show in a total babe.

I believe the term "it's all they got" applies here.

I remember an article posted here back when I was in college. It was about some Texas high school getting a new or renovated stadium. The fucking stadium was MASSIVE and looked like a professional football stadium.

Yes, there are a lot of districts with 40+ mil dollar stadiums. I was surprised to find out that a local HS stadium near me cost 41 mil to build back in 2010, it's really nice I'll give them that. Places like Allen, Tomball and McKinney ISD are the top dogs.

Apparently the entire south is like that. In the north , most people only follow college and NFL

In small southern towns I think High School football is a huge deal. At least how it seems grom every small town movie I have ever seen that mentions the local football team

Midwest HS football is pretty big too. Arrowhead HS in Wisconsin is a prime example.

Obviously the lower GDP means we're not building double digit million dollar stadiums like in TX.

Given how old Friday Night Lights is, it seems reasonably likely that HS football is actually BIGGER in Texas now than it was portrayed in the show.
