The Whitehall Ledger and the Whitehall Booster want to see as many Trojan fans as possible at this in-county rival playoff game.

The Ledger and members of the Booster Club will be looking for the most energetic Trojan fan at the game and will award them with a Trojan swag package and $100 from the Whitehall Ledger. Get dressed in your Trojan gear, paint your faces, do some chants - just keep it respectful - and you may be the winner of the Biggest Trojan Fan Contest for football.

The Ledger and the Booster Club will continue this Biggest Fan competition throughout the year with upcoming sports, but will not tell attendees ahead of time which game will have a winner. Be a spontaneous Trojan super-fan and you might win big!
