Flashback: Watch Lisle Lions Football 50 Years Ago

Videos surfaced this week of the Lions team in 1963; check them all out here!

The game of football as played by Lisle Senior High School Lions looked a lot different 50 years ago than it does today, and I don't just mean the footage being a bit fuzzier (but still excellent.)

The protection is much less, the running game more emphasized, the players look a bit smaller, the kickers use the toe-ball style... find your own differences in the above videos of 1963 Lisle High football posted to YouTube this week by user Dustdowner.

Check them out and tell us what differences you most notice!
