this is always the biggest game in the state every year. the 2 biggest all male Catholic high schools in Louisville or the state for that matter, always have a huge crowd. The game used to be played at the old Cardinal Stadium at the fairgrounds. I have probably been to about 9-10 games from the late 80's through the early 00's. I haven't been in a while, but man those games are classic fun. I remember the high school championship between them in 97' or 98', me and some friends went and it was mudder fockin' cold, like wind chill in the single digits cold, St. X won that game 3-0.
I thought for sure Trinity would win or come close in tonights game after beating St. X of Cincinnati, who was ranked or are ranked in the top 25 in the nation.
nice article in todays paper about NFL films have been filming the 2 schools this week for a small documentary segment to be aired later. The attendance at the regular season meeting between these 2 every year is usually 30,000 plus. I remember a game in like 93' or 94' at Cardinal stadium where the attendance was around 36,000 or something like that. I was trashed at those games back then , but they have played at Papa John's Cardinal Stadium, the new home of UofL for the past 8-9 years probably.
