Guessing you’ve never been to a high school basketball game at Hinkle.
Yarden Garzon can F all of the way off
- Thread starter kraft cheese+macaroni
- Start date
Id say put it on your bucket list but the IHSAA, messed with sectionals and regional sites.
Wonder if her leaving had anything to do with where Moren wanted to play her? Seems too slow and unathletic play guard. Maybe just a bad game but seemed like SC locked her down. When you look at the pace and athleticism of play UConn had, we would have lost by 50 to them. UConn made SC look like a HS team.
Like I said, I'm sure it's a great time for all the parents/family. I don't have any kids in high school sports anymore so not something I can really get excited about.
Bad take. Does it have great amenities? No. Great atmosphere has nothing to do with amenities. Amenities are for the corporate and rich.
I enjoy watching the Georgia high school football playoffs. Used to really enjoy the Kentucky Sweet 16 with no classifications.

I used to love going to my high school games in the Wigwam. Also loved watching players progress that were probably going to IU, like Damon , Yogi etc. All that’s gone now.
I'm an Anderson Indian class of 1970. Many fond memories of that building.
And Jay and their mom and Dad. Know them all . Lived a couple blocks from us. Carla and I were really close in high school and Jeff was my boyfriend for a week or so. 😎
No way!!! Did you visit when they lived on Orchard Lane? I saw Jay up at Wawasee last year but haven’t seen Jeff and Carla in years.
Oh yeah. My grandparents lived on Orchard Lane most of my life. Carla lives there across the street for probably 20+ years.
I’d guess you might find Jeff or Carla at Wawasee maybe once a year. Labor Day, most likely. I usually only see everyone at Christmas. Maybe a few tailgates.
Then we have seen many games in the Wigwam. Same graduation class. I grew up in Pendleton. Didn't see a way to send you a DM so posted this reply. Probably the most famous game in the Wigwam was the 1962 Sectional, afternoon game where Anderson beat Pendleton 57-56 in OT on a very controversial call as the game ended. Steve Clevenger hit two foul shots to win and no time left on the clock. Later on Coach Ray Estes and Clevenger said the foul called was never committed.

They lost in the Semi State to Madison. Madison lost to Evansville Bosse in the state finals. Coach Estes was one of my dad's best friends. My dad coached at Pendleton during that time. I always thought the Wigwam was the best place to watch basketball and although probably not allowed in today's world ... Anderson's pregame "war dance" for regular season home games was fantastic.
if you click the link of the teams listed it will show their all time record by game, by year.

Common sense is empiricism and a few simple rules of logic that served humans well throughout pre history and history. These is nothing wrong with common sense but it is often in conflict with ideologies.
they may still perform the war dance, i'm not sure. that whipped the home crowd into a frenzy.
Those sectional games were the best. Several times towed have several of the top teams in the state. Battles.
Reid? Didn’t they have a daughter and 2-3 boys?
Rosie and Ray were kind of like non-blood family but I was young.
Right off of Nichol across from the 4-5 shops there as you head out of town. Before you get to Tower Rd. Best I can do.
Thanks. I'm going up next month. I'm planning on driving around the old town and doing some reminiscing.
I was on Golf Club Road, right down from Edgewood ECC. Walked to the drugstore all the time and picked up Carla on the way.
I walk through Edgewood every once in awhile with a friend. Was in Anderson last week and had lunch at the newly renovated Toast. Rubys is a new one that is nice too. Or you could go old school with Lemon Drop or Genes.
Wow, you have missed out on a lot of good times. There is a reason why
our local high school fieldhouse seats over 7,000 people.
Walked by the Toast every day on the way to school. Those names bring back pleasant memories. I remember the Lemon Drop closed in the winter and the owners went south. Remember Joe's record shop? I think it's still there.

Did you ever cruise through Frishe's Big Boy drive-in on a Friday or Saturday night?
Oh yeah. I was hot stuff… had a convertible. My dad would do it to embarrass me too and I’d duck down.
