Hail, Mary! High school’s halftime show is a drag pageant
The Associated Press ^ | October 16, 2021 | By KATHY McCORMACK

A Vermont high school homecoming football game turned into a “drag ball” runway at halftime, with a mix of students and faculty members parading in gowns, wigs and makeup — and a big crowd in rainbow colors to cheer them on.

“Things went amazing,” Ezra Totten, student leader of the Gender Sexuality Alliance at Burlington High School, said of Friday night’s event, which also included participants from South Burlington High School. “The stands were completely packed. ... It was just so heartwarming to see.”

As school cheerleaders wrapped up their routine, about 30 students and faculty members dressed as drag queens and kings — or a bit of both — walked out onto the field and the crowd started to chant, “Drag Ball!”

Performers paraded and danced to show support for LGBTQ people. They also lip-synced to singer Todrick Hall’s “Rainbow Reign.”

Andrew LeValley, an English teacher and alliance adviser at the school, came up with the idea. “We had some people that are pretty involved in theater come in and talk about how you put on a persona,” he said.

Lauren McBride, principal of Burlington High School, said she heard a dad talking to his two sons at the game who didn’t know that the drag ball was going to be the halftime show.

She heard him explaining to them what dressing in drag means, “and it was like, ‘This is really cool,’” she said.

Small wonder that barbarians of the world expect to conquer us.

I wonder how many students he has had sex with?

I find this sick and disgusting for a school. No wonder I quit school early. I have a very nice life and I had very good jobs before retirement.

Our nation has crumbled now it is rotting.

Do you need to ask any longer who elected plugs and why?

I think Rudy paraded around in drag once back in the 90s. Think Trump groped him.

Used to be a nice place, back in the 60s.

One brick at a time, and eventually, the whole of society will be destroyed, and the entire country will just be history, except that, the history books won’t talk about a country that didn’t exist. It’s all part of the plan, and the complete destruction of the U.S. isn’t far off.

God is keeping score . . . His opposition has already lost. These poor reprobates. . . .and now the children are joining the evil bandwagon. Parents, you are responsible as well.

It’s shocking to watch this happen.

Luke 17:26-30. They knew not.

There is no limit to the depths of idiocy/depravity/slime for a leftist.
None.

That soooo fits. Oh well, my English teachers were great, but then again I actually got an education.

This is an “eddikator” who struggles to reach that rarely achieved (for eddikators) two digit summit of their IQs.

Genesis 19:27-28
King James Version

27 And Abraham gat up early in the morning to the place where he stood before the Lord:

28 And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the country went up as the smoke of a furnace.
