Friday Night Lights Trailer

[bradttu]

Some of you might remember me saying that a movie about my highschool was being filmed here a few months back. Well, the trailer for it is out now. http://movies.yahoo.com/movies/featu...ghtlights.html
I've been in that stadium that is shown too many times to count. It looks like it's going to be a good movie! :happy:

Simm - That was what everyone thought when Varsity Blues came out. By the way, I was in Lubbock this past weekend. I made a stop at Mr. Aquarium and bought some stuff. Gotta love that place!
Caps - I grew up in Odessa and went to Permian. All of this happened my brother's senior year (1988) at Permian. He knew most of the people portrayed in the movie. I lived 2 blocks away from the school. I now live in Midland. I'm about 3 or so blocks from Midland Lee.
Highschool football is nuts around here.
