Ironton is big and experienced as advertised and the Burg is small and young as advertised and hence the 42-13 score.

I then tried to go over on the ironton side to get food only to be told i wasn't aloud to be over there to go back on my own side. I thought that was kinda rude. I don't think they were ready for this game. Other than that i am impressed with the new facilities
They never are. You would think from the every other year big crowd for this game, someone would eventually figure it out.

First off Congrats to Ironton on the Win. But I have a complaint with the adults running things there. I always respect schools we go to, but after tonight I see Ironton as the worse place to visit!!! They did not show any respect to us at all ! We took my 2 year old granddaughter to use the bathroom... I did not know about the bathroom on visitor side on the end, so I went towards the Tigers side only to be stopped by a man standing by a rope where Ironton band sits. The man said you can not go thru here you have to go around on your side to the other end. Well a 2 year old can not hold it long, so I said are you serious? You have to be kidding me. He said no you can not go to this side Are you people trying to say a little baby is not good enough to use the restrooms on your side. I heard many women talking about being turned away at the rope. Now tell me how that is a right way to treat your visitors?

first off great crowd there tonight, the burg is way down as advertised and the fighting tigers hit on pretty much all cylinders. i did see some stuff but it's early in the season. and we may have a placekicker now. we handled the ball poorly on some punts and kickoffs, and i'd like to see the ball carriers transfer the ball to their outside arm , so they can stiff arm. but overall they looked really good for week 1. great way to start the season.

Yes we are very young this season not to mention smaller than usual. The burg just got out matched by a stronger anf bigger tiger team. You guys are gonna be tough to beat. I will be shocked if you guys are not in stark co in december

Yea we will be ok in a couple years. We have four fresh on the team one of which is a pretty big boy. I can only imagine in four years when them four are seniors and have three years of varsity experience

And the truth finally comes out. After all these years someone has finally figured out that Ironton does not allow babies to use the restrooms on the home side of the stadium. :roll:

I don't think she was trying to say they don't let babies use their restrooms! I had the same experience with my 2 1/2 yr old. She is newly potty trained and still has accidents if she waits too long. I have always used the restrooms on home side until this year. She was about to have an accident and I even told the guy that. When I walked up he looked at my shirt and said "Ma'am you can't come over here" and then continued to let people from Ironton cross under the rope to the visitors side! If they are trying to cut down on the crowd then shouldn't they keep Ironton people on their side too?

I might have said it in a wrong way, But the point I was trying to get across was not just about a baby but about everyone that was turned away. I have went to games since 1968 (And that is many, many games!) and have never in my life seen a school use a rope and guard to stop visitors from crossing, so funny yet so sad. He was told the baby can not hold it and still no you can not cross the rope. So my point was it was right down rude to stop a person from using the home side restrooms. I thought segregation was over! No matter what excuse you come up with it is not right and I know you will never see that at another school field. And dont say because of the crowd, They let the Ironton people through to walk on visitors side.
