11,000. Which is not as much as i thought.

Heck, even Pennington holds 10,500. And it doesn't have an upper deck. Are you sure about the 11,000 figure?

Nice writeup and yes they nailed a great game to represent TXHSF:

...

The year was 2006. The occasion was arguably the most memorable high school game in state history.
A matchup between Southlake Carroll and Euless Trinity, two of the state's premier programs, had been hotly anticipated for years.
Yet despite being situated roughly 10 miles apart, the two Metroplex powers -- Carroll from one of the wealthiest suburbs in the nation, Trinity from a blue-collar enclave next to the Dallas-Fort Worth airport -- had never crossed paths.
Their first meeting would finally come in the second round of the Class 5A Division I playoffs*. Adding to the drama, it marked the first postseason meeting between reigning 5A champions since the split-division system was implemented in 1990.
College-quality coaching and talent, pro-style media coverage, the presence of legitimate state champions crowned through a true playoff system, rabid fan support -- everything Texas high school football has to offer was on display that November afternoon as an estimated 60,000 packed a venue normally reserved for the NFL to watch Carroll rally for a 22-21 victory.

Dude that is just about like what my High School's bleachers were like. Only difference is that not far behind the bleachers it sloped off into as I recall a 38 degree slope. I guess it could have been 30, but it was a monster to us. We used to run wind sprints up that hill and then carry a person on our backs a half a dozen times up. Then finished with more wind sprints. The guy I got to carry all the time was Rocco. He outweighed me by 125 lbs easy. Sorry for the flash back. Good times.
