Long live Orville Redenbacher.

Yea, I usually eat to many myself, ha.

I agree, you came to the right guy here, I jokingly tell everyone that I go around the state rating popcorn, people will text me when Holmes is on the road and ask my rating, I send a pic and rating to them, I told the concessions lady at Henry Clay a few years ago that Scott County was number 1, she took my popcorn back, added salt and the butter looking salt and said, now try it. Sorry Mason County folks, I know your proud of your popcorn, and it’s very good and a nice serving, but I still have Scott County number 1, if it’s micro wave , I don’t even bother getting it. Ok as far as Holmes popcorn goes, it depends on who makes it, different sports organization run it different nights , I guarantee if Softball has concessions, ( I’m the coach) it will be buttered, salted and fresh, I rated it a 7.5 the other night. Enjoy the popcorn, I highly recommend the hot Mets , but get a cold drink with it. Enjoy the tournament, safe travels.

No, not giving up gym for nothing, maybe I miss worded it, they are renting it, but it is not for 4,500, they will keep concessions, the only one working the game that normally does for Holmes games is the clock keeper.

Nice district win for Boone, tuff district, especially on the road.

The $4500 number is not correct, Holmes will get concessions.

I can see both sides of the debate here, yes some very nice gyms in the tenth region, was just in Nicholas County’s, very impressive. Travel is an issue in the tenth and always will be. But it’s Scott’s turn, they could have said ok, we are holding it at Scott, people would complain it’s to small, so they moved it to Holmes, just a few miles north, Holmes has held many region games, even back in the day when students showed up. Holmes held the region last year when the bank of Ky arena ask out of the contract, some one mentioned parking, for those of you not familiar with Holmes, one block past the driveway into Holmes, turn right, some parking behind the school and street parking as well. I have did pa at Holmes for many years and it’s been years since there was standing room only, I hope it works out and wish everyone save travels and a great tournament.

Nice report as usual, the Gary Huhn meet and greet has been moved to the cafeteria instead of the Hartman room.

A very good game at Holmes tonight, back and forth game, Tez Calloway leads Holmes with 43, four wins in a row for the Bulldogs. Nice game from Robinson tonight from Ryle, two pretty evenly matched teams.

Holmes will be honoring Mr. Huhn on Friday January 21st, Gary has taught and been the Holmes basketball and football score keeper since the mid 60s, has over 1500 basketball games, there will be a meet and greet in the Hartman room before the game, which is across from the concession stand, the podium will forever be know as the Gary Huhn podium. There will be a presentation between the JV and Varsity games and will be honored by the Covington board of education, everyone is welcome.

And I agree, 35 th should be played at Holmes ever year, and Covington Catholic likes it at Holmes as well, when it’s their time to host, they usually move it to Holmes.

Not sure I understand the comparison, With Beechwood and Holmes, I think Holy Cross will host districts this year. Holmes was approached a few weeks ago about hosting the 10 th, I hope it works out for everyone, most of the Holmes staff that works the games will be at Bank of Ky, since it has been there, Holmes staff have pretty much been doing a lot of the behind the seens work.

My guess, no home court advantage for anyone.

16thBBall fan, you are the man, happy for ya, you are number 1 Bengal fan on here. What a nerve racking game.

I guess Kansas didnt bring a punter today, just to easy.

Kelcy did the UC cheer on that td. The bengal db"s looked confused on both touch downs.

Once again the offensive line in a no show so far, long day for Burrows if this continues.

Thanks again, very nice job, glad to see Boone County moving up, I think they will continue to improve.

I guess Dixie, but blind fold me, I probably would not know the difference.

He also helped out at Ryle when David McFarland was there, just couldn’t make every pratice, lived in Indiana, your correct, very good guy and coach.

They are playing, thanks for a very informative report. Great job.

First off, thank you for the ranking, this is just a question, not a criticism or knock on any schools that are in top ten, just looking at some records of a couple of the teams, just wondering, how Scott, Rowan or Holmes are not in top ten, or maybe I should ask how close they are, Scott is playing awful good right now. Just curious, and thank you.

Final from Holmes 24 to 13. Calloway over 200 yards.

24 to 13 Holmes with 2 minutes left

This one surprises me a little, looks like the district is going to be a 5 way race.
