I agree with almost everyone that there is no need to move the game away from Belfry. They have the best program in the county and the most passionate fan base (dang that hurts coming from a Pikeville fan ). I would think that Community Trust (and to a lessor extent WYMT) would have a say in this considering they give the most money.

I don't see the game every being moved out of Pikeville. As someone has mentioned before, the looming headquarters of the prime sponsor will keep that from ever happening. Other schools may have branches near their stadiums, but I don't believe that any are in sight of the field.

People have also mentioned Belfry and Pikeville pulling out of the bowl (allowing the other 4 to play out of town teams) and starting their own and returning it to the roots of the PCB. If this were to happen (which might not be that bad of a thing) I can see Community Trust bank pulling out and following them. I mean most of the top executives/board members are from Pikeville and big Panther fans. I can't see them seeing the benefit of staying in lesser bowl while the top teams in its home county pull out. Then again, this is only someone's suggestion which doesn't seem to be happening anytime soon, if ever.

Anyone else heard something like this? All the KHSAA says is that the games on both Friday and Saturday are held @ Pike County.
