Go you Panthers go!
So, have you heard? Elder High School (Alex’s Alma Mater) has a chance of making it to State Finals in football this year! Woo hoo!
However, the game might fall on the same day as the wedding! (Oh no is right!)
The wedding was already planned to accommodate the OSU/Michigan football game (per my brother’s request) but I never thought about a high school football conflict. ha ha! Just to be clear…I will not be upset if anyone is sneaking away to catch the latest scores or wearing ear plugs throughout the day! Just make sure you share updates with all of us! :o)
I wish the team the best…and will try my hardest to get Father Bolte to bless the team during his homily…and have the reception band learn the Elder Fight Song! Alex taught me the song many years ago…when he asked me to wear his Letterman jacket…in college!
Go you Panthers, go.
And let this wide world know
Of Purple Panther might,
So fight team, fight, fight, fight!
When the Panther roars,
The Panther always scores.
So hit ‘em high and hit ‘em low,
Go, you Panthers, go!

I actually recall sitting at the Lodge and you walking into the living room wearing Al’s letterman jacket, purple panther gloves and drinking out of an Elder coozie. It was such an odd day at the Lodge, especially since you were a Junior at UC at the time.
I’m very happy that my future sister-in-law knows the Elder fight song. Well done Michelle.
The 16th ranked Bearcats also have a big game on Saturday with a chance to clinch the Big East title. Luckily the UC vs. Syracuse game starts at noon. We should all be able to catch most of this game on the radio during the early activities and pictures. It would be pretty sweet if the school where Al and Michelle met wins their first ever Big East title and the league’s automatic berth into the BCS on their wedding day.
Go Bearcats!
Go Panthers! Elder, Elder Elder!
Michelle,you are much too beautiful,wise, and charming to waste your life on being an Elder fan. It is not too late to save yourself. Come to Florida and I will teach you the West High fight song. Go Mustangs beat Elder!
