I've probably taken over 50,000 football photos over the past 10 plus years, and every once in a while, you get one that stands out. I believe this was taken last year. It's difficult to keep track when there have been three grandsons that have played football. One has graduated from high school, one is a sophomore in high school and one is in the 8th grade. Football season is over for the year and I have at least four more years if the body holds up. I have about been wiped out many times along the sidelines. I thought this would make a good Wacky Wednesday entry. This is not one of my grandsons.

But isn't it great going to all these games, I remember going to each one and the ticket takers remembering me each year. Like you I have so many super shots. Glad I was able to get there each week. Happy for you too. Fine capture.

---This is not one of my grandsons----

Owd Fella Tick (OFT), if it would have been one of your grandsons, as a proud grandfather, you would probably have taken a different category than Wacky Wednesday (W²) for this action shot, 😁 !
This picture might make us believe that this youthful football player is performing an acrobatic act instead of being busy with the football game. Your perfect timing, whether intended or not, makes this shot ideally suited for Wacky Wednesday however (W²), 👍 !

They grow up WAY TOO SOON! What a treasure of memories you have collected over the years. If possible, put those pics on memory sticks for each grandson. By doing so, you will have given them a history of themselves that they may share with your future great-grandsons (and daughters).

No wonder that this photo is your favorite Tick. You won't get such a photo if you try it. But only just by luck. Certainly a photo to treasure.
