POLL: High school sports fans, how did you spend your Friday with the Packers playing?
Racine Horlick beats Racine Park in rivals’ 100th all-time meeting
A quick look at the sights and sounds from Horlick’s 27-7 victory over Park in the 100th all-time meeting between the two Racine rivals on Friday.
Wisconsin high school sports fans had a unique conflict on their hands Friday night, as the Green Bay Packers kicked off their season shortly after 7 p.m. CT in São Paulo, Brazil, against the Eagles.
The Sports Broadcasting Act of 1961 prohibits the NFL from holding games on Friday after 5 p.m. CT from the second weekend of September through the second weekend of December in deference to high school football. Labor Day fell on Sept. 2 this year, making Friday the start of the first weekend of September. The NL Central-leading Brewers moved first pitch of their Friday contest with the Colorado Rockies to 5:10 to avoid conflicting with the Packers’ opener.
High school football in Wisconsin went on as scheduled, however, with kickoffs across the state holding at 7 p.m.
