Uptown Butte is going to be busier than usual tomorrow. Lots of things happening including the Montana Tech Homecoming which is a big event in and of itself. Want to be a part of the fun? Here's a little bit of what you can expect.
After last week's convincing win over Central Washington University, Oredigger fans are chomping the bit to get their beloved team back in town and back to work this Saturday. The Orediggers will open conference play against Eastern Oregon at 1pm at Bob Green Field at Alumni Coliseum and Metals Sports Bar and Grill on the corner of Park and Main is back with their first "Kegs and Eggs" party of the young season.
The Butte High Bulldogs and Butte Central Maroons have posted their activities schedules for the upcoming week. Let's see what our local teams and programs have on tap.
The Montana Tech Orediggers have landed at No. 16 in the Top 25 Preseason poll released by the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA).
The wait is almost over. Friday Nights in Uptown Butte are about to get a little more exciting once again. We can almost feel the change in seasons in the air as fall rolls in and kids prepare for their inevitable return to classes. But with school comes sports and football season can't come soon enough for the rabid fans of the beloved Butte High Bulldogs. Following a season that saw the Bulldogs advance to the quarterfinal round of the Class AA Football Playoffs, Butte High School has released its 2023 football schedule.
The Butte Central Maroons have posted their 2023 football schedule and the upcoming season will see a total of 9 regular-season games on the docket, 4 of which will be home contests.
Daaaaa Bears. You gotta see this Chicago Bears superfan from Laurel, Montana. Henry Gilbertson is one of the coolest kids you'll meet. One of these days, we need him to anchor a full sportscast here in Montana.
You'd have to be living under a big rock in Montana NOT to know the Brawl of the Wild is this Saturday in Bozeman! The thing about it, though, is that some Bocat/Griz Fans are more prepared and organized than others. Hence, the ones ahead of the game purchased their tickets weeks ago for the game, had their tailgate festivities planned out, and booked hotel reservations way in advance. Serious gamegoers even know exactly what "team logo" layers of clothing they plan to wear to match weather conditions. Then there are the "winging it" Bobcat/Griz fans. The ones that procrastinate purchasing tickets for whatever reason and then end up with NONE. Yet, because they love a good Bobcat/Griz football matchup and want to be part of the festivities, they make every attempt to be there in the flesh even though it would have been easier to maintain some level of organization by purchasing tickets and a hotel room in the first place. Or so I've been told. Lol!
