[Pulp Fiction]

Football is by far the most popular high school sport in Kentucky.

Im not gonna disagree that football may be more popular....
But HS basketball is personal.

Family plays against family... neighbors play against each other... the people cheering for the other team are people you know... The "rich" kids that live in one county but go to school in another because they think they are so much better than you.... High school Baksketball in Kentucky means so much more than 32 minutes of play.

Games are talked about for years after they have been played. How many points (this person) had or if (So & So) would have made their freethrows.... High School basketball in Kentucky are some people's "Family Night Out" or the only time that little granny and grandpa go to town to watch Junior play against that "team from Lexington"
