All those unsavory southsiders descending on Debbie's tranquil suburban neighborhood. Perhaps we'll see a teen takeover at the Dairy Queen?

"Wilmette Police Department, how may I direct your call?"
"Yes, this is Debbie Downer from 1115 Laramie. Please send a squad car to patrol Laramie Avenue near Loyola. There are dozens of suspicious looking characters wearing hoodies and do rags walking past my house and throwing their roadies on my front lawn."

OMG ... Flyer v Rambler home and away for a nighttime game must happen!

A truly pathetic comment on a prep football forum. Please try to be better.
Talk about the rivalry. Talk about college prospects on the team.
Talk about the possibility this could be first of two meetings in 2025..
Just get out of the gutter please.

Lighten up Francis.

No room for that kind of comment on a sports board. It's not funny.
Reality is, I live in a community that's 30 pct. white. I have watched my local high school team play at night at Loyola, not in football, but in basketball, and the Loyola people were every bit as accommodating to the visiting fans as every other school is when my home team plays on the road.
To suggest that Loyola fans would be upset having Mt. Carmel fans come up to Wilmette for a Friday night game is not fair to either community.
There was zero need for the comment.

Have you thought about social distancing… or getting the latest booster?

Might help you get past this

Despite the fact that you jumped to conclusions and got your knickers all in a twist when you could have nicely asked me to explain the joke you didn't get, I'm going to go easy on you.

What I wrote was tongue in cheek and referred to a time back when Loyola was trying to obtain village approval to install lights on their field. It has nothing to do with Loyola fans and everything to do with Loyola neighbors and some of the less-than-neighborly things they were quoted in local media as saying about southside fans coming up to Wilmette for night games. There were a number of posts about that here, and the name Debbie on this board has become a descriptor for Loyola's bitchy neighbors. One of the best posts was after a MC vs LA night game when a poster reported he had a Debbie sighting of her on the street outside her house before the game with a fistful of cash in her hand and directing cars containing MC fans to park in her driveway.

Although the Debbie posts started around two years ago, references to Debbie have been a running joke here ever since (not quite at the level of the Bartlett freshmen team, but part of this board's lore nonetheless). That's what Dean was referring to in the subject line of his first post of this thread.

Have a nice day.

I’ve been throwing my empties on Debbie’s lawn since the Carter administration.

You know you might have been able to get a deposit back on those back then.
Particularly if they were quarts.

There's a backstory to this.

GET OFF MY LAWN!!!

We all know the type

‘I’ve been throwing my empties on Debbie’s lawn since the Carter administration.’

Schlitz made a sturdy 8oz. can. That pull-tab had some sturdiness too.

How about the 7-oz. "Little Joe" Schlitz bottles that circulated in the 1960s and a bit beyond.

 

[crusader_of_90]

Little Kings and Mickey Big Mouths were both small but sturdy, too.

At Krapil's on 103rd Street, a seven ounce Schlitz was known as a "Joe to Go" - something to enjoy while driving home. That was the 1960s.
