How to watch 2023 Tales of the Gridiron

Another year, another show – ‘Tales of the Gridiron’ is back!

It’s not always about the wins, losses, or statistics. For most communities, high school football goes so much deeper. This year, we sought out to tell four more gridiron stories from across South Dakota.

This year’s production of ‘Tales of the Gridiron’ will feature stories about tradition, creating your own legacy, family, and a closer look into one of South Dakota’s most famous fans.

We met up with Harvey Naasz of Winner, spent an afternoon with the Pierre Governor's girl kicking duo, took in a practice with the Todd County Falcons, and watched a Beresford game from the best seats in the house with the top Watchdog fan you'll find.

The show will air live on Thursday November 2nd at 8 pm CT on SDPB1-TV, YouTube, Facebook, and online.
