Ok, Cuero vs Ingleside at 7:30 Friday night.
Medina Valley vs Kerrville Tivy at 3:00 Friday afternoon.

Did a little research on the style of play and KT throws the ball approx 25 times a game. MV appears to be primarily a run team.
That game should be average in length.

We're assuming the stadium and parking lot will have to be cleared before any Gobbler/Mustang fans are allowed on the grounds. It would be total chaos not to do this. (Most of us know how Gobbler fans want to get in the stadium early). Likewise the locker rooms will obviously have to be cleared before the guys can suit up.

If the game happens to run a little long, will all of the fans line up along the road waiting to park??

Not trying to be a pessimist, but this could get a little wild. It would have been nice to have the first game start at 2 or our game start at 8 or something, just to be on the safe side.

would be great idea to have more time between games, moving first game thirty minutes earlier and second game thirty minutes later would be a huge help

I have reffed several games there this year with large crowds. They have a great system of emptying the place. Does not take long at all. Not sure they would try to keep incoming cars out of the lot as there are no safe places on the roads just outside the stadium to line up cars. They are major roads, not side streets.

That's 4 1/2 hours between kickoff times. The Alamodome uses 4 hours. I know the facilities and logistics are different, but the first game should be over by 5:30-5:45, which leaves approx. 2 hours before kickoff of Game 2. In addition since there is not a RGV team playing, you won't have fans showing up 5 hours before game time:D
