Get in my stomach, you tasty temptress! (Willie Smith photo)

Willie Smith is on the trail of culinary nirvana.

The Coupeville High School Athletic Director recently headed off to Friday Harbor with one mission in life — to eat a hamburger covered in mac ‘n cheese.

The Wolverines were selling the tasty treat as part of their concession fare for Friday’s football clash with CHS, and Smith was on the case.

Friday Harbor’s original offering, to which I say … dear sweet baby Jesus.

Unfortunately, as he bided his time in the line, the family right in front of him ordered the last available hamburgers.

After being (allegedly) tackled to the ground by wife Cherie and told that no, it was probably not a good look for an AD to sucker punch a kid for his burger, Willie found an alternative.

He got the concession stand folks to apply the mac ‘n cheese (and some bacon and condiments) to a hot dog and wandered away happy.

While some random Friday Harbor family remained blissfully unaware of how close they came to meeting the vaunted Two Fists o’ Fury.

Now back on his own island, Smith has had top-secret conversations with Coupeville’s football foodies, and word is the mac ‘n cheese dog is likely to be on the menu for the next Wolf home game.

That event, a Homecoming clash with Forks, is slated for Friday, Oct. 13.

Prepare your stomachs, Wolf Nation!

They have the meats!

Prepare your taste buds.

With no football games or volleyball matches right now, the Coupeville High School Class of 2021 is unable to raise money from concession stand sales.

So, the parents and students have found a different way to get meat into the mouths of Wolf fans, while generating money for the graduation night party fund.

The Class of 2021 is hosting a BBQ at Mickey Clark Field Saturday, Nov. 21 – with all the hot dogs and hamburgers you can buy.

They’ll be selling Wolf Pack Meals at the concession stand, which sits at the entrance to the field on S. Main, and the event runs from 12-4.

With the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, everyone is required to wear a mask and maintain social distancing.

The sizzle of burgers on the grill fills the air.

The best chain gang in the biz gets a photo op. But, if they’re all on the field, who’s guarding their half-time snacks?!?!

Friday night football is always about more than just football.

As the biggest “event” sport in the high school game, gridiron action brings out a wide host of people.

From band members to cheerleaders to burger grillers, local photo whiz kid John Fisken always takes some time away from the game to capture the swirl of activity going on off-field.

The pics above capture football without football in all its wide-ranging glory.

Fall sports have sprung, in all their photographic glory.

Coupeville High School’s football team kicked off the 2019-2020 school year Friday, hosting Port Townsend, and the event was big enough to convince John Fisken to drive down from the city to the North.

Cameras at the ready, the wanderin’ paparazzi clicked away through the pre-game action and the first half of play.

The pics above are courtesy him, but are not all that he shot on the night.

If you purchase any prints while there, a percentage of each sale goes into a fund Fisken uses at the end of the year, when he hands out scholarships to two CHS senior student/athletes.
