Football Prank --- by Dan Crespi

 

I am so proud and passionate to be part of PCSS and the football teams of the 70s. We were not very good, but our passion for PCSS was second to none.

I lived south of the school so every morning I would come through the back gates and walk the length of the football field. We were scheduled to play our arch rival, Gordon Graydon, that day, and as I walked past the field as I was going to class, I noticed they had painted their colours on our goal posts and in the centre of the field.

This was not going to be taken lightly...

So I and a few others on the team decided to pay back the actions by imposing our brand name onto their school. Middle of the day - ya, stupid!!!

We were called down to the principal's office, and he reprimanded all of us for our actions. We were then assigned the task of removing the paint from the wall. The brick at Gordon Graydon was very porous. We removed the paint, but the chemical we were provided with left a lasting impression.

Drive by Gordon Graydon and you will still see "PCSS" embedded in their wall. We got 'em in the end!"
