Stinky Sneaker

Friday night (Avynlea's Birthday) was also the Stinky Sneaker. Stinky Sneaker is our annual friendly rivalry game against Mountain View. Kefford, Avynlea and I got to the game a little late because we went to the Verona Chili feed for a little bit before we went to the game. I love the Stinky Sneaker, it is loud, chaotic, crazy but so much fun. I love seeing so much school spirit. Because we got there late the only seats we could find were in the upper top bleachers, which was fine because the entire bottom bleachers were filled with students and they stand the entire game and I was not wanting to do that. The only problem with being upstairs was it was super hot up there and we were right next to the band. But it was still such a fun and electric game and and I was happy to be there. We couldn't see Kenedy cheering because Varsity stood on the bottom row of bleachers in the bottom section. 
The Stinky Sneaker's winner is determined from impartial judges on which school shows the most school spirit. Both schools decorate the gym and come dressed up and are constant cheering throughout the game. Meridian pulled off the win for the game with a score of 56 to 53, it was an exciting game down to the last seconds. Once the game was over everyone waited to hear who won the Stinky Sneaker and it was...Meridian!!! For the 5th time in a row we won! The kids went crazy and ran down to the floor to celebrate! 
We found Kenedy once we ventured down to the floor and I had Avynlea stand with her for a picture.
The JV cheer coach Libby jumped in for a picture when she was I was taking pictures so we got one with her also.
