Tallassee hosted its annual Tiger Night on Friday and the atmosphere was bursting with excitement and anticipation as the football team took their first real game snaps of the season. The community got a taste of what the season might look like, and it is eager for more. 

The home stands were packed out with purple and gold, the student marching bands, cheerleaders and dancers for each side all lent to the electric atmosphere of high school football on Friday nights. And all of it with a brand-new backdrop: the recently installed turf field and the digital scoreboard.
