I was in Grade 11 attending Opeongo High School in Renfrew, Ontario. For the 8th and final game, I was supposed to be with my gym class to watch the game. Well they had a small TV and I wanted to see the game on the larger screen inside the school.

I remember how exciting the game was. Unfortunately, my gym teacher Mr. Jim Ferguson didn’t like that I skipped the class so I received a detention. My discipline was to remove the dirt from the cleats of the football team. Years later Jim and I are good friends.
