Review the thread
How are teams in SEO affording to do this? Since this thread is about Ironton and their people are talking about it on here. Where is the money coming from? Curious because I know the state cannot do it.

Well I think this is just typical for Ironton and southern ohio in general. It's rumor and exaggeration based off of a fraction of old info. After you move out of that area you start to observe that rumors and gossip are valued with a lot more frequency than facts or real information. And old news is still new news there. So they stumble on this idea from over a year ago via gossip instead of real information and pass along all the false or exaggerated stuff that got added to it along the way. Idk why it is like that there but it is and always has been from my memory. I wouldn't put much stock in it.

That was never going to happen because Davey and "Big Boy" hated each other and the super was too dumb to get it done. It's more likely to happen now with the new super who seems to be getting a lot of things done and the money is still there. :mrgreen:

This will be awesome for the kids. Just hope it’s used for all sports and not just football. Maybe they will post some drawings on it soon?

For anyone who has not seen the Chieftain Center at Logan High School, it is very large and also very nice.

Ted had it all planned out. He was the mastermind. Then he had to go and make some stupid comment that got him fired and the place went to heII in short order there after.
