I'm surprised no one has posted here yet, but it was another successful Pigskin this year. A great event. I heard nothing but positive comments from fans from all the teams. This event, and it's success and outstanding organization, is what fueled the surrounding towns to have their own tournaments like ours. Although, I feel ours is still the crowned prince of them all.
Congrats and keep up the good work to the varsity club.
