Bonus Nerd Notes: Memorable Homecoming Game Performances Edition

Written by on October 8, 2021

While I posted Nerd Notes: Homecoming Edition, earlier this morning, we have a bonus edition that will be fun to look through as well. While I am a co-collector and keeper of the Minden High Football stats, the lion’s share of that work goes to my tag-team partner on Friday nights and Minden’s reigning Man of the Year, Jake Chapman. He passed along a few nuggets from the “big book” that I thought Minden High fans would enjoy for Homecoming. So, let’s look at Nerd Notes:  Memorable Homecoming Game Performances Edition.
