An Evening Competing For A Little Brown Jug.

(Beaver Falls, PA)  As legend has it, Years ago, the losing team of  the annual Beaver falls -New Brighton football game would go down to the Beaver River and fill up a jug (we can only assume that it turned brown after being filled with the river water) with water and bring it back up to the field for the winning team to take a drink.

Well, we now have running water, but that little brown jug is still just as important, but now as a trophy that get is kept by the wining team after each year’s game.  Friday Night, New Brighton held off a Beaver Falls comeback at the end to win this year’s edition of the “battle for the little brown jug”, 27-20, at Reeves Field on the campus of Geneva College.

Here are some pictures of a very festive and fun evening on College Hill last night:
