a question for the Flist

[cornerofmadness]

Am I wrong in thinking in Ireland, high school sports don't come equipped with cheerleaders? I was under the impression it was more an american thing. I'm sending my irish character to his first American football game and I was wondering at some of the things he'd be more or less unfamiliar with (outside of American movies) to confound (and excite) him. Poor Taz, she gets to face him wearing one of those Q-tip marching band hats (if I had to do it...)

And thanks to sarakat for helping me to finally come up with a name for my first victim. Marcus. Oddly enough that's the first inital of the high school jock who used to bother me in school (Mario.)
