Last week the boys had their 1st playoff game and I was tasked with some type of spirit item for the kids. So I decided to make spirit buckets using the metal pails in the $1 section at Target, some paint and some candy! EASY! It did take some time though since the paint had to dry in stages but each pail had the boys number, their name, a Cougar paw print and "Cougars 2013" on the back. I wrote a little poem of sorts and put it inside....."SMARTIES know......if you stick together as a team like the 3 MUSKETEERS you will CRUNCH the Jets!". So of course you can figure out which candies were in the bucket. I also put a brand new penny in each bucket and told the boys it was a lucky penny and they had to wear it taped to their pants on Saturday I don't know if it was the buckets, having the team healthy or the pennies but THEY WON and they play in the championship on Saturday!
