Losing town wears the winner's colors?
Challenge accepted, say members of Calvary Presbyterian Church in Bayfield.
They will wear orange to church on Sunday if La Junta wins the 2A football championship game on Saturday, but that's not going to happen, predicted some confident Wolverine fans.
If Bayfield wins, members of the La Junta congregation will wear Bayfield purple on Sunday.
The Rev. Brian Caselles of Calvary shared the following post on his facebook page from his colleague, the Rev. Missy Jo Romano, in La Junta:
"So, hey, Brian Caselles, the people of First Presbyterian in La Junta would like to offer a friendly challenge to Calvary Pres of Bayfield. It's pretty simple: If Bayfield wins (unlikely) on Saturday, we'll all wear purple to church and snap a photo of ourselves. If La Junta wins (likely), y'all will wear orange to church and do likewise. We officially send the challenge across the mountaintops to you!"
"Ooooh.... no problem!" responded Brenda Marshall, a proud Bayfield soccer mom who will cheer Bayfield students on in any sport. "We'll DEFINITELY still be wearing our purple shirts!"
