A real "town and gown" event

Some thoughts, photos and a neat video from Friday

All kidding aside, it was the real “town and gown” event.

Before we ring your doorbell for Halloween, let’s revisit Friday’s world-record football toss attempt.

It involved all Ada school classes from 2019 to 2032, more ONU students and faculty than you could count, just about every village official you could name plus a supporting community cast who wouldn’t have missed it for the world-record setting event it was billed to be.

To help set the stage, imagine bussing nearly 1,000 Ada students from the school to the football stadium. That started at 11:30 a.m., with kick off – in this case, pass off – slated for 2 p.m.
