This may be odder then usual, but any Grenadiers here at WhatifSports? Anyone on this site attend Elk Grove High School?
I went to Wheeling High School, both were in the Mid Suburban Conference in the suburbs northwest of Chicago, Illinois.
The same blueprint must have been used for both schools. Elk Grove had steps in some places Wheeling had an inclined slope, or vice-versa. It was such an odd experience for me to walk through that building.
I am curious if anyone from Elk Grove went to an event at Wheeling and had a similar experience.
Anyway, attending basketball or soccer games at Elk Grove was one of the most bizarre experiences for me.
To be in what seemed like a parallel universe. To be in a place so familiar, yet different. One would turn the familiar hallways and expect to see the familiar displays, pictures, colors on the walls etc., but it was very different. Like being awake in a dream. Getting ready to enter the gym and to see a different Logo at center court, different banners honoring past teams.
Like entering your living room, and the floor plan was identical, but the furniture and furnishings were all different. very disorienting.
