THEY DON'T EVEN HAVE AN APPLEBEE'S: I grew up in Texas, where high school football is the big game (sometimes, about half jokingly, I've said I chose my college because it had a football "stadium" smaller than my high school's B field), and it's big even in towns too small to field a full 11 man squad, resulting in 6-man football, played on an 80 yard field and with a few other variations, and where winning teams in Texas this year have been averaging over 57 points. NPR took a look at 6 man football in Wyoming this morning, which reminds us that yes, there are places where the joy of the game still exists.
