The Houston High School football team will take the field in style in 2017.
A new inflatable tunnel was recently presented to the team thanks to contributions from area businesses, individuals and families. The price tag was $5,100.
The helmet stands 17 feet tall with a face mask that opens for players to run through. The tunnel behind it is 12 feet tall and 24 feet long.
HHS opens the season Aug. 18 at Ash Grove. The first home game is Aug. 25 against St. James.
