Why would bleachers even be needed??? I mean who even sits at a football game???
Lutheran North vs Hannibal
- Thread starter 2old2slow
- Start date
Plenty of standing room, or on a blanket on the hill on the home side. Portable stands on the other side of the jump pits and perhaps more on the visitor side. Lights may be a problem with sightlines. Will be interesting.
Can you imagine the uproar if this was Webb coming to town?
After seeing it the first time field level, i can say I think different now. This is definitely enough room for a quarterfinal game, if in lawn chairs or blankets . don’t trust google maps lol

All of this lack of seating, standing room only, and even a mention of rain has me thinking of a high school football game back in 1983
The facility is crap. Just what people want to do, go to a game and sit on the ground on a hill on some blankets or bring chair to sit on. With temperatures probably in the 30s, doesn't sound like much fun. Hannibal will travel well regardless...wouldn't be surprised if Hannibal has as many fans there as LN. If it were at a better stadium, most likely would. I heard opposing teams usually don't go to the locker room, if there even is one, at halftime because it is far away. It would also screw up the pregame routine as well since it is far away. It should be a good game. LN has great team speed and are huge up front. Hannibal will need to play a clean game and limit LN big plays. Should be a great game.
I still agree it’s a crappy facility but it’s what it is. Hannibal has no say over this, Lutheran North done this to make Hannibal uncomfortable to play on a grass field but Lutheran North might of made a big mistake not playing at a neutral site because a lot of Hannibal fans I have talked to are mad about this and you don’t wanted have aneyas on your bad side or they be in a hurting. I have seen it twice this year and Troy and Kirksville last year!!!
If it takes field drama to get a really good player motivated to play well then you might be in trouble lol
Aneyas doesn't care where the game is played or on what type of surface. He will show up and show out regardless.
Mid 50s
Natural grass
120 yard long field
Goal posts
What else do fans need??? Geeeeeeesh!!!

Have a question about Bowling Green. Do they allow people to have lawn chairs inside the fence, or does everyone have to be on the outside of the fence?
I don't think turf helped Hannibal vs Helias this year. I mean is this really a conversation that people are complaining about playing on a grass field with limited seating?
Last year at the BO game they were inside the fence. Not sure if that is how every game is, that is the only time I have been there. But if I remember correctly the BG student section was behind the endzone with a set of bleachers they had there.
Just a theme of when Hannibal loses he is never at 100% after the fact. Making sure that will not be a factor in this game.
Small sample size of two games but Aneyas spent over half the games out at wide recieiver so I didnt conisder him the main back. But that may have just been the gameplan vs Helias. The young man is special in the open field.
Plenty of parking, just might be a walk. Area is big enough. If MICDS can host Smithville, LN can host Hannibal. Also they have lights, so not sure what more light is needed.
Also enjoy north city, get out and see the sights
One of my favorite things around here during this time of year is the irritation people get for having to travel to places that are different. Not everyone gets a home game, it stinks, but it is reality
I know last year when WP was complaining about how tiny St Doms stadium is, I was told something along the lines of “MSHSAA minimum for hosting class 4 playoff game is 900 seats”
Aneyas not being 100%? . what about 650 Rushing yards and 10 Rushing tds and 118 Receiving yards and 2 Receiving tds and a punt return in the 3 districts games so Far. Also cap it off with a 93 Yard TD run Friday night
Oh yes, take a nice stroll through U City, Berkeley, Ferguson, Overland
Apparently you struggle with reading and comprehension, this is not about people not wanting to travel. This is about people wanting a half ass decent place to sit their ass after traveling. Gol damn boy errbody kno dat
It was awful when Lamar went there! Weather was terrible too! 7-6 final, great game!

As a BFE alumni I agree.
Am I conveying’ this here point across to ya clear enough for you & yours ya Yankee sob
I heard ya. Getting rid of those potential excuses in the event that they might possibly lose LOL
It is their last chance with him. Maybe they can pull it off. If not, it is going to be a long off season.

Jezuz H Christ...literally every Middle school in the Northland has three times the seating as this pasture. Are they bringing the cattle in at halftime?
From some of the Google earth it looks like they have put in new lights since this picture was taken. However just another point if MSHSAA is going to have hosting guidelines but not enforce them then why have them? If they would actually enforce them it might make some of these schools actually update their faculties, if they were not allowed to host playoff games, because lack of seating or press box room.

New lights at Lutheran North? And a play clock at Ritter?
Well I’ll be damned, these private schools are finally making their facilities regulation.
Yes they did. WP visitors side holds 400-500 if you sit butt to butt and it was pretty dang full.
That was a COLD playoff game. One of the coldest football games I’ve been to in awhile. I was standing on the Hannibal side in 3-4 layers with my face completely covered other than the eyes. 🤣🤣🤣
Aneyeas is at 100 percent and there should be no excuses from Hannibal. You don’t ever hear any coaches making excuses for losses. You put your best 11 against their best 11 and see who comes out on top. All this talk about the fans and the stadium is pointless and comes from a bunch of people who forget none of that matter. Can Hannibal have long sustained drives with the occasional home run from Aneyas? You might see old school 3.5 yards and a cloud of dust all the way down the field if necessary. If Lutheran stays in the 6-1 look with their middle back 8 yds deep and safeties on the hashes i could see veer and dive option all day. Make a couple plays on defense and hannibal walks away with it.
