I'm told this is the 150th Battle for the Paddle between Bellevue and Dayton, as the 3-3 Tigers visit the 4-2 Greendevils.  We have never had the opportunity to broadcast this famous rivalry, but that changes Friday 10/6 at 7:00.  This game will be broadcasted live on (859) Sports Radio!

No Mayer where this game is played, be extremely careful going up to the press box and bring and oxygen mask. Those two stadiums have some of the steepest stands I’ve ever seen. My dad would have me and my brothers run a lap at Bellevue Stadium then steps after each lap, until we got 2 miles in. 
 

I'm going with where my tax dollars are going. Go Tigers.

I plan on attending this annual battle.  Good luck to both teams.

Will be a fun game this Friday. To those planning to come I’d get there a little early. There will likely be one more season at Davis Field after this one, but this will likely be the last game between Dayton and Bellevue there. A big crowd is expected. 
 

I am going with Dayton to win.. They are fewer In numbers but a deceptive 2-4 team. I still believe two of their losses should have been wins earlier on the road. Good luck to both teams.

Bellevue making strides, but not up to the caliber of Dayton.

Greendevils name the score.

I’m not sure how many tickets have been sold so far, but I was told by someone working at Dayton that “more were sold already than expected “. I bought mine earlier. Between parking being tight by the field and around there I’d definitely come early if planning to go or if tickets haven’t been bought online.

Tickets can be purchased on Gofan, go to the website/app and type Dayton high school and game will come up.

Dayton have significant number of players sitting this one out due to suspensions?  Heard that some post game festivities at Marion County last week following the game led to this???

Don’t know, didn’t go or hear anything about it.

I heard something about that. Person who told me sounded like they heard it from someone who heard it from someone who heard it from someone. They just said they heard some football players got in trouble but no details. Hopefully that's not the case.

I like the underdog in this one. Bellvue in OT!

Dayton on the field getting ready.
