A Friday Night Football Fever tradition
It takes a village to feed a football team, and in Bay Minette a Friday Night Football Fever tradition makes sure it happens every week.
Each week, area churches serve breakfast to the Baldwin County High School football team, cheerleaders, band and auxiliary members. During the first week of the season, First Baptist Church fed the football players and cheerleaders, while First United Methodist fed the band, Tigerettes and Tiger Guard members.
Bay Minette shared photos of the morning meal, noting that First Baptist feeds the football team and cheerleaders before every away game, and First United Methodist picks it up for home games. The band and auxiliary groups rotate among area churches for their weekly meal.
The effort is one way the community rallies behind the Baldwin County Tigers throughout the season.
