A friend of mine bought himself a drone about a month ago. A couple of days ago, with the permission of our HC who is also the AD, he shot some footage of our stadium and made a video. I thought this was pretty cool!
Just to answer a couple of questions ahead of time, just in case anybody is wondering..........the huge sign on top of the pressbox is a fold-out sign that reads differently depending on whether it is folded in.....or folded out. In this video it has a huge #1 displayed, because we won the State Championship this past season.....that is the folded OUT position. At the start of NEXT season the sign will be folded IN and it will simply read.....Artesia Bulldogs. It will remain that way all during next season. If we win a state title NEXT season, then it will be folded OUT to display the #1, and it will remain that way until the start of the next season. Clear as mud? That's OK, doesn't really matter. It's just a "spirit thing" and sort of a tradition that the entire town takes pride in. Win the state title and the #1 gets displayed during the off-season for the entire town to enjoy. DON'T win a state title.....and it doesn't get displayed.....the sign stays folded in. Anyway............
The orange footballs on the front of the pressbox.........those are the State Championship years. If a state title is won, then an orange football with the year of the title goes up on the front of the pressbox. Simple enough? Just thought I would pass this along...hope you enjoy it! This is from Artesia NM.............
