On Monday afternoon the Gorge High Marching Weasel Band was mistakenly given permission by the Milwaukee Recreation Authority to use the field at Duckworth Memorial Stadium for practice in preparation for the upcoming band finals in Walker Village. The result was extensive damage to the field, making it unsafe for play by possibly inducing injuriy to competitors. The Lions were told the field would be reconditioned and ready for play tonight. But due to increasingly inclement conditions the field was not in playing condition by this afternoon. The Lions were informed by the league and Tampa agreed to the condition that the field must be “football” ready by Wednesday afternoon or they will forfiet the last game of the season to Tampa…..
Our apologies to the many fans of the Milwaukee Lions worldwide and ask that you join us tomorrow evening, Wednesday, at 6pm PST for our final game of the seaosn, field conditions permitting……
