Live from Pisgah at Shelby

Shelby fans before the game
Pisgah fans before the game

Live from the pressbox at Pearley Allen Field at Blanton Stadium about 25 minutes until kickoff. I talked to a few fans before the game to get their takes on the game and the tradition at the two schools ...
Former Shelby player Joey Famble (C/0 1997)
"I'm very excited. Every time we play Pisgah, it's a great game. We made the trip up there last year, and this time they have to come to the Lions' den. It's always a hardnosed battle. The key will be who has the best defense and we all know that's the Golden Lions!"

Former Pisgah player Brandon McGaha (C/0 2002)
"I love this program to death. The fans are a big part of Pisgah football. A lot of times we have more fans at away games than at home games. They love their football."

Longtime Pisgah fan Walt Leatherwood
"You can't beat it. I've been coming to games for 40 years. My son Frank finished up at Pisgah. We go everywhere. If there's a ballgame, we're going to be there."
