Gonna Make You An Offer You Can’t Refuse - A Fan’s Perspective

editors note: this story was just too fun to read for me and i have to share it. there are pictures of these guys in the article website. click here to read the whole thing.

You’ve all seen (or at least heard of) them by now…Those ”dapper Don’s” in brilliant orange suits, black shirts, and black fedoras.
When they enter the building, they command attention. Springville fans love them. They are awesome. The girls on the team love them. They are fierce. The press loves them. They are the stuff of an instant legend.
In real life, just typical teenage boys, they represent everything that is good, and right, and amazing about life in a small town, and a small school.Some play basketball. Some play football. Some play baseball, or run track. Some are in band and drama. All are decent young men, and leaders within the school community. They are all seniors, who parted with hard earned cash for a brilliant orange suit, so they could make a BIG statement of support for their girls basketball team. Now how cool is that?
I’ll tell you how cool….so incredibly cool that they were instantly dubbed“The SHS Mafia”.
