Documenting my travels and thoughts from around the country
2025 Week 15 (Pennsylvania & West Virginia)
Being at home for the week, I had a few options for games. But I wasn’t 100% sure what days I could be around. After one round of the Chuck Funke Bowl, I was back in New York on Thursday for the last of the Chuck Funke Bowl games.
There were a couple of options. Iroquois was hosting West Seneca East while McKinley was hosting Kenmore West at All-High Stadium. And though I hadn’t seen Kenmore West before, I had been to All-High and didn’t feel like driving into Buffalo for a game. And I had gone a while without seeing Southwestern.
Southwestern was playing Akron at Akron in the Class C Chuck Funke Bowl. Continue reading “2024 Week 12 (New York & Pennsylvania)”
I wasn’t planning to be home during Week 11. In fact, I had already planned to be in Montana again. But things don’t always go as planned. And finding myself at home I looked around the great lakes states and found some Wednesday and Thursday games in New York that I could attend. Not just Pennsylvania games.

2024 Week 9 (Four States)
After getting home the previous week, I had planned to be in New York for a CSP game, and couple that with a trip to Greenville Saturday night. Thursday was likely to be in Brooke County, West Virginia. So, Friday was the only open spot. And I was hoping to make it so that I would be in four states for the week.

2024 Week 3 (Ohio & Pennsylvania)
2023 Week 11 (Pennsylvania & New York)
I wasn’t supposed to be home this weekend. In fact, I had not even considered what games I might do. Which led me to some usual places instead. For Friday, I figured I’d head to one of the WPIAL playoff games near home, but not particularly interested me. Continue reading “2023 Week 11 (Pennsylvania & New York)”
2023 Week 3 (Tri-State)
Week 2 melted into Week 3. With my sister home, plans changed for the following weekend. Primarily, I was going to be taking her back to the airport Saturday afternoon. The only real option for Saturday afternoon had been the Kennedy Catholic game. Continue reading “2023 Week 3 (Tri-State)”
2021 Week 4 (Pennsylvania)
This week went a little off-kilter compared to the original plans. I had planned a Thursday night in Ohio. And my Saturday was a bit different. Schedule wise, things went a bit well after the initial upheaval. However, I did have some issues along the way. Mostly on Saturday. But, in the end, Pennsylvania was on tap for four games and a Browns game Sunday to cap the weekend. Continue reading “2021 Week 4 (Pennsylvania)”
2019 Week 3 (Pennsylvania)
Week 3 ended up a bit more local than I had thought. My original Week 3 plans included trips to Punxsutawney, Erie, Youngstown, and New Philadelphia. But, with a Browns game on Sunday, decided to stick a bit closer to home on Saturday night. Continue reading “2019 Week 3 (Pennsylvania)”
2018 Week 1 (Pennsylvania)
