Dan, all accounts in the papers say they shut everything down including the banks and schools. Everybody in town was mobilized in some way either promoting, baking selling tickets or whatever was needed to get the game and make sure it ran smoothly. This was not only a game but an investment for the town. They had to supply so much money to get the teams to Blue Rapids. I can't recall now but I think the boosters made around $2000 after paying off the teams. I'll try to post some of the newspaper articles.
