Light Coming From Alumni Stadium At Night Actually Just Football Players Playing Flashlight Tag

ALUMNI STADIUM — Hard work pays off. This has been the phrase guiding the Boston College football team this season. The Eagles have been determined to make BC the most respected team in Chestnut Hill.

On Monday night, Eve S. Dropper (MCAS ’25) was walking past Alumni Stadium and was drawn to the flood lights that almost never turn off before 10 P.M. Intrigued and heart-warmed by the evidently tireless mindset exhibited by the football players, she walked to the top of the Beacon St. Garage to take a peek at their practice. When she got a good look, she was surprised to see that the players weren’t wearing their uniforms but were in all black and hiding from each other.

At first, Dropper thought they might still be practicing for an upcoming game, as they often use running away from the opponent as a strategy. However, Dropper quickly noticed that some players were holding flashlights and realized that something completely different was going on. They were giggling and chasing each other around in a rollicking game of flashlight tag. Dropper told the Classic, “I knew some of the players frequently used flashlights, but I didn’t think they were ever to be seen or sanitary enough to be touched by other people.”

She watched as one player was chased down and caught in the dark, shouting, “Time Out! Time Out!” Reportedly, the player who was “It” said, “No Backsees. You can’t just call timeout when you’re losing.”

With the hopes of salvaging the season all but gone, the football team has pivoted its focus to the upcoming Regional Flashlight Tag Tournament. When asked about the team’s game plan for its upcoming battle with UConn, head coach Jeff Hafley chuckled and said, “We’re less worried about UConn and more worried about ‘UConn’t find me.’”

In order to ensure that the boys at least score a few points at Regionals, Jeff Hafley has pleaded for the team’s budget to be increased to include Fenix LR40R Rechargeable 12000 Lumen Flashlights for every player.

According to Dropper, they ended their practice with one round of Ring Around The Rosie and they all fell down.
