Friday Night Lights

Posted: 02:45 PM ET

Eric and the field

The "News To Me" crew had a ball (literally) under the Friday Night Lights on Karl Bostick Field at Parkview High School in Lilburn, GA. We were on the field while the Parkview Panthers walked away with a win over the Mill Creek Hawks, 30 to 10. Big thanks to the folks at Parkview High School who really made us feel right at home. They even let Eric go inside a snack shack to help boosters make the specialty of the stadium, Frito Pie!

Get the recipe and see more shots from the shoot on the next page:

Eric helps with the frito pies

That's Eric in the shot above "helping out" behind the counter. To make your own frito pie at home: take 2 bags of Fritos (the snack pack size), pour into a bowl and top with 2 scoops of chili (your favorite kind), and top that with 2 scoops of nacho cheese sauce. Add diced onions and or jalepenos to taste. Make appointment with cardiologist.

It's going to be a long night

Your's truly in the shot above... I'm making my "It's going to be a long night," face.

If you were the "News To Me" camera operator, this is what you'd see! As long as you were doing your job correctly.

Eric and the flag guy

Close to the last shot of the night... the poor guy with the giant flag above had to stand and wave that huge banner for about a minute all together in order for us to get the shot we were going for. A minute doesn't seem like a long time, but you try waving a bed sheet tied to the end of a steel pole for 60 seconds.

Tune in this weekend to see if any of these shots look familiar while you watch "News To Me!"
