Buffalo Gap High School is the Virginia State Division I Champions

As you all know here on Bluegrassrivals.com I am a Pirate fan with all my heart, but today I was a Pirate Fan who got a state championship. I took one of my friends from Virginia and a Buffalo Gap graduate to Louisville on a football road trip that was seven hours long one way to watch my Pirates. We left on Thursday around 4:30PM. We watched the Pirates and then jumped back into the car disappointed of course. We did get to see a great game in Louisville, but not the outcome we wanted. We arrived back home in Virginia around 2:30AM Saturday. We were back up at 7:00am Saturday and on the road by 8:30AM. My buddy from Buffalo Gap took my wife and I to watch his Bison’s win there first ever state championship with a score of 28-19 in SalemVirginia. Which by the way, was only a 4 hour around trip compared to the 14 hour trip I took him on to watch the Pirates. I guess we may be a little crazy, but we love high school football and had a blast. Two championships would have been nice, but in a way a Belfry Fan got a state championship this weekend. You had a great season BuffaloGapHigh School with a pirate fan on board. The Bison’s finish their perfect season 14-0 with a great win over a pretty good ClintwoodHigh School team (9-5). Thanks for a fun weekend Buffalo Gap, Louisville Central, Belfry, and Clintwood. I know this is a KY site, but this was a fitting story that ties two people from two different states together as friends by football.

PS: I told my friend that we need our teams to do this on opposite years. I may be getting a little too old for that long of a trip again. LOL
