High School Claims Title in Football's Megascreen Wars

Ana Campoy

This tiny town near the Louisiana border can now make the outsize claim that it is home to the biggest high-school football video scoreboard in the whole state of Texas--and maybe the country.

On Friday, all eyes will be on the high-resolution, 1,200 square-feet screen when it powers on for the Carthage Bulldogs' first game of the season.

Among the $750,000 behemoth's features: instant replay, animated graphics to fire up the fans and individual stat cards for the teenage players, complete with pictures.
