I can feel the heaviness behind my eyes. I had woken up early for school today, and I was ready to nap as I pushed my way into my house, but I couldn’t today. Today is the Cocoa Bean! The highly anticipated football game between the two local rivals of Milton Hershey and Hershey High School. As I race down the stairs to my room my bed calls out to me in a tempting manner but I have important things to get to.
I pull out the giant bright orange t shirt that I got for the 2013 Bean and placed it on the floor. I smoothed out each crease until it was perfect I stood over it analyzing it before I kneeled down next to the ugly shirt.

My best friend, Lindsey, was waiting for me outside in her matching obnoxious orange jersey.
“McDonald's before the game?” She asked. I eagerly nodded as I was starving. All I had eaten that day was energy drinks and some fries at lunch. We made the quick stop at the McDonald’s down the street and we were on our way to the arena.
The line was thankfully short when we arrived as we finally made our way up to the ticket booths. We had just missed kick off and the start of the game, but that was ok. We didn’t come for the game. The Cocoa bean is the place to hang out and have fun in the bleacher. I have never watched a single football game. After buying our tickets Lindsey and I walk through the gates, but go our separate ways because we have different friend groups we hang out with.
I make my way up to the highest corner of the bleachers where I’m greeted with happy screams from my friends. I jog up the steps to the top and I’m handed another energy drink, and the fun begins. We’re all running back and forth yelling and joking. We spend the night talking about inside jokes and throwing around a few open water
