Hey there, young’uns! Let me tell ya, things here in Whitney, Texas ain’t always quiet. We got somethin’ special goin’ on, and that’s our Whitney Texas football. Yep, them Whitney Wildcats are somethin’ to see! Every Friday night, the whole town gets fired up. You can feel it in the air, like a pot of beans about to boil over.

This year, you gotta get your tickets beforehand. No more waitin’ in line like a bunch of cows at feedin’ time. They got this newfangled thing, some app called GoFan. You can search for Whitney High School on it, whatever that means. Or you can do it online, they say. Just get your tickets for the home games, ya hear? Football tickets are on sale now. Don’t miss out. I think it is five dollars or something.
- Adult ticket: $5.00, I reckon.
- Kid ticket: $5.00 too.
Whitney football is a big deal, I tell ya. They got what they call “Varsity Football.” That’s the big boys. And let me tell you, they’re somethin’ else. They run like the wind, and they hit like a ton of bricks. I seen ’em play, and my old heart just about jumped outta my chest! We should support our Wildcat Stadium.
They play other teams, from other towns. One time, they played a team from Palmer. It was a sight, I tell ya. That was back in November, I think. You can see it all, before the game, during the game, and after the game. The details and stuff. That Whitney vs Palmer game was a good one.
Now, you might be thinkin’, “Why should I care about some small-town football game?” Well, let me tell ya, it ain’t just about the game. It’s about community. It’s about comin’ together, cheerin’ for somethin’ we all believe in. It is about Whitney Texas football. It’s about supportin’ our young’uns. Come and cheer on our Wildcats!
Them boys, they practice hard. They sweat, they bleed, they give it their all. And for what? For the love of the game, for the love of Whitney. It’s a beautiful thing, I tell ya. You can see it in their eyes, that fire, that determination. If you are in Whitney Independent School District, you should be proud.
You know, back in my day, we didn’t have all these fancy apps and online things. We just showed up at the game, paid our money, and found a seat. But times change, I reckon. And these Whitney Wildcats, they’re keepin’ up with the times. Our Whitney Texas football is the best.
I remember one game, it was rainin’ cats and dogs. Nobody cared, though. We were all there, huddled together under our umbrellas, cheerin’ our hearts out. Them boys played like champions that night. They were slippin’ and slidin’ all over the field, but they never gave up. That’s the kind of spirit we got here in Whitney.
So, if you’re ever in Whitney on a Friday night, and you hear a roar comin’ from the stadium, don’t be scared. That’s just us, showin’ our love for our Whitney Texas football team. Come on down and join us. You won’t regret it. It’s more than just a game, it’s an experience. It’s Whitney football.
They got all sorts of stuff now, too. They got what they call “iWatch Texas Community Reporting.” I don’t know what that is, but it sounds important. And they got somethin’ for adults, ESL somethin’. And employment somethin’. They got all sorts of resources, 24/7, they say. They sure care about their people here.
But the main thing, the thing that brings us all together, is that Whitney football. It’s the heart and soul of this town, I tell ya. So come on down, get your tickets, and cheer on them Whitney Wildcats. You’ll be glad you did. This is the best high school football ever.
