Our sons first Folkstyle State was at the indoor Soccer and basketball complex in Bloomington. We were as green as the Corn I grow, before it started overheard a gentleman say we should be out of here by 6:30PM wife and I looked at each other and both said Oh My G!!. We had only been to a few local tournaments before this. Our son wrestled three matches and was on the mat about one minute.
We were also at the Middle School State at New Castle wrestled last match at 10:45PM then 4hour drive home.
Then the Folkstyle State at Sports of all Sorts East side of Indy. Porta-Potty trailer over flowing running across the floor, little kids running thru it then stepping on the mats to wrestle.
We would not trade these memories for anything, The ISWA and our family have all grown up together. Our rear ends are a little wider from the hours spent sitting in a Gym. Our son now wrestles mostly out of the country, we would gladly sit 5 hours between matches to get to watch him wrestle.
