5 Things You Need for High School Football Games

So if your high school is like mine, your student section at football games is crazy. I have learned in my four years of high school that whether you enjoy watching football or not does not matter. Football games are a social event for you to go have a good time at. Now when I first started going to football games I was not prepared. It is embarrassing to look back at those pictures but now I am always prepared for games and I am here to save you from not being ready. So here are my top 5 needs for high school football games.

1. Paint- If you see pictures of me at a football game you will notice that I am covered in paint. I have paint hand prints up my legs and arms and paint on my face. Paint is a must have at games to show your school spirit.

2. Spirit Wear- What is a better way to show school spirit that wearing school shirts? I have multiple shirts for my school and even a few homemade ones. School spirit wear is a necessity at games to show your love for your school.

3. Noise Maker- So like I said, my school has a crazy student section and if you ever watched all the students walk in to the stands you would see that everyone has a noise make of some sort. Now let's face it, if you dont have a noise maker you do have your voice and your hands but I guarentee you that you wont be able to talk the next day and your hands will hurt. To save you from this misery, your local party store sells all types of noise makers in a variety of colors. Go get one!

4. Phone- Your phone at football games is just a way to capture memories. You know you are going to want pictures to post on social media and to rememebr the good ol' days. Now don't keep your nose stuck in your phone because you will miss a lot of action and fun memories.

5. Friends- Let's be honest and say that life is no fun when you're alone. when you are at football games, make sure you go with some friends. I have found I have the best time when I am with people I know and who better to make memories with than your friends?

I hope this helps you get ready for football season and I hope you enjoy all the games that you go to! Make sure to send me a picture of your student section and some of your favorite moments on Twitter!
