“Get you one of these”

rings.jpgrings.jpgIn the 2004 movie version of H.G. Bissinger’s classic football book Friday Night Lights, the Holy Grail for the members of the Permian Panthers football team is a state championship ring. In the film, a favorite of the Wenatchee Panthers, Tim McGraw’s character taunts his nephew by constantly reminding him of how he (McGraw) has a ring. The Wenatchee Panthers now have rings of their own. Instead of spending nearly twice as much in some cases on senior class rings, a few members of the 2007 Wenatchee football team spent $180 on sterling silver CBL league championship rings, complete with their names on the side and sparkling purple stones.
