Heard it was a ghost town of a crowd Friday night. Was told band left after their halftime performance and the cheerleaders left prior to the game ending. If this is true, than that is truly poor decision making on the part of the band director and cheer coaches. I would be embarrassed if my schools band and cheerleaders left prior to the end of a game. I know it was cold out, but they signed up for supporting the team and community at games. What makes it even more embarrassing is that Halifax was celebrating senior night and playing for a possible home playoff game, which I've read hasn't happened in decades. If this is true, it's a shame that two school funded programs couldn't stick around until the end, support the team until the end and share in the celebration at the end.
Did any other schools band and cheerleaders leave before their game concluded?
Wonder if they will show up for the playoff game or is that too much for them, since it would be an extra game?
Another reason Halifax has the reputation it has. Good luck to the Comets...seems like they need the support from outsiders.
