Ethan: "So are they paying you to go back and cheer?"
Me: "Definitely not... But I do get a T-shirt"
Ethan: "So you're going to cheer at a high school game ... even though you're not in high school...all for just a T-shirt?? I wonder what kind of things you would do for $1,000?"
All week this kid was on me about this Alumni game and why I would do such a thing. You can't explain nostalgia to a 9 year old. They think fart bubbles in the bathtub are hilarious.
Pretty cool though. One cheerleader was the class of 1972. We had 2 (including my best friend) who are within 2 months of delivering a baby. We toasted on the track and felt old together. And eventually we felt tired. And sweaty.
One day, we will be too old for this. But today is not that day.
