Found one link on Google. I guess your life has to revolve around high school football to know and assume everyone should know who he is.Thinthickbigred;493348 wrote:I dont even think you have to be a high school football guru to know of Don Bucci . 49-0 is what I remember him for . TY Mr Bucci .
Don't be too hard on the kid, he's a Dover boy. Football is irrelevant there and so is their knowledge of it.Thinthickbigred;493348 wrote:I dont even think you have to be a high school football guru to know of Don Bucci . 49-0 is what I remember him for . TY Mr Bucci .

Thinthickbigred;493669 wrote:Are you serious ? We will only make 1,000 for the Massillon game? I anticipate atleast 3,000 Big Red pre sale tickets . I do they get all the gate money . What are the pre sale agreements? 1,000 dollars doesnt even cover the bus trip and meal .
Not doubting you but how do you have this info? What is the % the away school keeps on pre sale tickets? Massillon brought over 3,00 to the game and at 7 bucks a pop thats over 20 grand easy . a bus ride and meal might run a few grand no more and boosters or the away team often take care of the food bill . Id just like to know . My guess is every team has different contracts and perhaps a set monotary amount . This is a cash cow for both teams and I hope it continues . I know we will be the biggest crowd in Massillon second only to McK. I look on the Tiger web sites and I check out all the pictures and teams like Mentor and even Harding dont bring squat for a crowd . Not to many teams travel like Steubenville and Massillon . It adds to this new rivalry . This time around though we will not be punked and pushed around and stepped on like a junior high team . Yes I remember the Tigers when I was a kid and they walked all over us and then kicked sand in our faces .

That's all that Massillon got from us last year.

holdingout;494319 wrote:With you saying Big Red cleared 20k from the StJohn's game, is this an average week? Are you counting parking, programs, game ball, 50/50? If so, with 8 home games Big Red would clear aprox. 160k for the regular season? That's some major cabbage.
