I understand exactly how it works. And just like I stated before the other county teams will get blamed because none of the top teams want to travel to the PCB and play. In reality those top teams do not care about the PCB when they can get a home game against another top team. Its not an argument, you are not even old enough to remember when the PCB was first played.
Your #1 makes no sense because every school rotates taking up gate money and working the concession. Pikeville rotates just like every other school. Does Pikeville get this free money........they get their share just like the other teams but they work for their share,lol.

Not only am I old enough to remember when the first PCB was played, I was out of high school when it happened. I vividly remember EVERY PCB except for the few I missed while living away.

And the other schools didn't rotate working the gate until they started playing in the PCB, just like the concession stands were always worked by PHS and BHS volunteers, along with some from CTB in some cases. Even still, the majority of the time, the gates are handled by Belfry or Pikeville volunteers with most of the game work volunteering coming from other schools is in the form of concession stand work.

Lastly, we don't REALLY blame the other schools. They whined, yes, but the committee is the one that bowed to them. Do you REALLY think that, for example, Lexington Lafayette or Tates Creek or Lex. Christian wants to travel to Pikeville to take on Phelps, East Ridge, or Shelby Valley? No. If they do, they are taking on Belfry or Pikeville, period. That's why they are always stuck playing Shelby Valley, Phelps, East Ridge, and Pike Central against each other.
