[Hoot Gibson]

I was there, not a supporter of either program, I was working, but I do have respect for both teams.  What I witnessed, was JC fans yelling to get coaches and/or players off the field because they thought a melee was breaking out, as did I. The Corbin athlete that was hurt was away from the action, in my opinion most JC fans as I,  had no clue there was an injured athlete, the press box could have overlooked the injury as well.  After everything settled down, respect ruled the day with the exception of a few Corbin fans who were upset and looking to be victims.  One thing I do know for sure, visiting teams will tell you in my experience, they've never been treated better than at Johnson Central under the guidance of coach Matney, I do not know if this is still the norm. 

On the other hand Corbin fans appears proud of their port-a-potties for the visiting fans and the locker room for visiting teams with it's NAKED COMMODE at Campbell Field.  I hear a complete renovation of their football facilities is in the near future, but one thing that won't be touched is the old visiting team dressing room beneath the Corbin home side bleachers nor the NAKED COMMODE.  Maybe after Corbin wins the 2022 KHSAA State 4A Football Championship (I have no reason to believe they won't, they are the best team in 4A according to RPI) they will step up and show visiting teams some hospitality, and stop thinking they need the advantage the NAKED COMMODE gives.  My Observations and opinion not that it matters.

Thank you. I was not at the game but the hospitality that you described matches my experience with Johnson Central, which spans a period of 40 years. I have known most JC principals personally since the mid-70s and the school has always been proud of the hospitality extended to visitors, as well as the security that is provided for the games. I

The Johnson Central principal and his staff have always patrolled the stadium with radios looking for potential threats. Our facilities have always been well maintained for the home crowd and visitors alike. You will never see JC posters taking pride in providing second class accommodations to visitors to our school.
