Highland Tech @ Thomasville
- Thread starter TVILLEDAWG2370
- Start date
Start running the clock when they leave Gastonia
To all Highland Tech travelers, no need to stop and eat before the game because I’m telling you, you are about to encounter the best hot dog in all the land of high school football stadiums - the famous “cushwa dog” pair that up with some loaded nachos and cold beverage/hot chocolate and you want be disappointed. Also we look forward to hosting you and hope you enjoy the atmosphere from the legendary Cushwa stadium and home of the 8 time state champion Thomasville Bulldogs !!!
Also, you must purchase your tickets on line at GoFan.co
Not really a game worth talking about! Dawgs take this one playing 2nd string.
Hope he gets some good reps in this game. Good luck with rest of playoffs, ill be following
Can’t emphasize enough about no tickets sold at the game. I’m not a fan of that process, but would hate to see any visitor not prepared for it.
Welcome to the Chair City!
Welcome to the Chair City!
Don’t like it at all. Some people have a hard time with that especially the elderly ones. I know a school in our area that did it and lost a lot of attendance. Midway through the season they switched back to selling tickets at the gate
I don’t like it because it makes you pay an extra $1. I know that’s nitpicky but if you have to get tickets for a family of 6, that’s an extra $6 on tickets instead of two hotdogs
Mostly everyone in Tville hates it we have lost hundreds of followers and $1000’s at the gate this year
Started with that. But I imagine it’s become more about convenience for staff.
Still weird to me they don’t want to accept cash at the gate but you have to pay cash at the concession stand
The schools handle the gate. The city runs the concession stand. For people who don’t know, the city owns Cushwa Stadium and leases it to Thomasville City Schools for games (about 18 days a year). The schools pay $15 grand a year for football at Cushwa and baseball at Finch Field (about 10 days). Maintenance is about three to four times that.
But I hear you on the inconsistency.
Not when you consider that maintenance is lots more than that. And that most city taxpayers have kids who go to school at East Davidson or Ledford.
I imagine that any high school would love exchanging $15k for never having to mow a field,mark it off, change out light bulbs ($10k last year), maintain and clean the stands and restrooms…..and on and on. You can’t do it for anywhere near $15k. And that doesn’t count baseball.
The city and private donations paid for the play clocks, $7500. It’s a sweet deal for TCS and likely unique in high school sports.
The last year it was calculated, maintenance on Cushwa alone was $37k….2018.
I truly think SD could beat this team Thomasville is playing by a few scores. They are really bad!
The 3 highland fans appreciate the info
It’s a wonderful site! ITJ is a very humble man who would not tell you that he created and maintains it
Every Player dressed for Tville should get to play Friday night (alot).

Mitchell is gonna rent Mt. Airy’s middle school, since our backups have been scored on. Need that shutout. 
Nope. Mitchell plays SD who you mentioned so I was trying to figure out a way to preserve a shutout so I could boast with the bear fans
