I remember the Lex Catholic game at Paintsville, but I believe that was in 97, Josh McKenzie's Senior Year. His grandmother passed away that afternoon. 2000 plus people in a gym that holds 1300 on a good day.........HOTTER than the gates of you know where........College coaches from all over the US were tuning in to the WYMT feed to watch Tackett, McKenzie, VanHoose, Graves, Fields, and many others. I know 4 players went on to play D-1 basketball, maybe a fifth, plus another 2 or 3 that played NAIA.

What about the Clay County/Paintsville game in the late 80's with Farmer bring his team to take on Pelphrey and his group of players? That was another game that sold more tickets than seats.

The Paintsville/Lex Cath game was amazing, I remember sittin on the stage with my uncle, I was 11-12 years old.

As a player, I'd have to say when we (Paintsville) played Rose Hill on Senior Night in 2003. They had OJ Mayo and them boys. Sold out just like the Lex Cath game, plus they had a big screen TV in the new commons area of the school playing a live feed of the game for fans who couldn't get in, AND they had a big screen in the library playin a live feed of the game for more fans.
