Colbert County High School in Leighton has a jumbotron scoreboard similar to the one pictured above. For years it's been used to feature local candidate advertising. Now it's showing an ad for Trump-Vance.
After complaints, Supt. Chris Hand called it all "shenanigans" and told the school to remove the paid ad. The jumbotron is officially limited to local advertising.
Is this legal? Perhaps it was due to a lack of way to display the sign's origins? Yet we can't see how this qualifies as shenanigans.
Can the Colbert school system now be sued? Stay tuned...

Leighton: Birthplace of Bank Independent and Jumbotron Shenanigans!
If some smart officer of the Shoals Democratic Club had the insight to scheme to somehow have a HARRIS/WALZ ad posted on the billboard it is almost a given that the ballgame would never have started. There would been wailing and gnashing of teeth among the curses and threats from the stands as soon as the ad appeared and in all probability the MAGA folks would have stormed the scoreboard and ripped it to the ground. It would have been a sickening yet enthralling sight to watch (if ALSO a version of a re-run)! Sort of like being fascinated by a car wreck. You don't want to look, BUT.......like watching the Trump/Vance campaign! Too bad, there are not more underhanded, aggressive and devious Democrats in the Shoals! ððððĪŠ
