Although October has yet to conclude, parts of Montana got hammered with the first major snowstorm of the year last week, which made for a chilly scene at local high school football games on Friday. It also led to the funniest touchdown celebration of the year!
Skyview High School in Billings, Mont. enrolls about 1,700 students.
Its varsity football team entered the weekend at 2-8.Helena High School in Helena, Mont. enrolls about 1,500 students. Its varsity football team entered the weekend at 7-3.
The latter traveled 220 miles east on Friday to face the former on the heels of a blizzard in the first round of the state playoffs. Temperatures hovered around record lows, with a high of 20-degrees and a low of nine degrees.
Meanwhile, a huge layer of snow covered the field at Vigilante Stadium in Billings. A team of parents had to work all day to
They were successful in their mission, which led the game to get underway as planned. The field was frozen solid and snow surrounded the sidelines, but there was football to be played!
High school football is more fun in the snow.

All cleared. Field is muddy but cold and hard muddy. Supposed to be 15 degrees at kickoff. #mtscores pic.twitter.com/gfsYXtg3ah

Fortunately, even in defeat, the players were enjoying the conditions.
Helena beat Skyview 48-14 and it was never particularly close.
However, when the home team found the end zone for the second time, spirits were high. Skyview’s ball-carrier proceeded to run all of the way through the back of the end zone and YEETED himself into the pile of snow. Except the jump was miscalculated, so the player went flying out of sight.

The best touchdown celebration of the year, on any level (high school, college or NFL) came from the losing side. It just goes to show that even in defeat, snow games rule!
