Shooting football on Thanksgiving is a rite of passage that makes me feel pretty thankful. Even though it’s a little bit of a bummer to work on a holiday, shooting football on turkey day reminds me of how unique my job is and how fortunate I am to be able to do what I love for a living. After five years in the photojournalism field, the standing assignment feels just as traditional as the pumpkin pie. Seekonk ended up losing to D-R 20-6 they weren’t too happy, but it was an interesting game and it didn’t rain. Always a plus.
