Instead of a football game under the lights, it was a prayer service at the 50-yard line. Over 100 people attended a prayer service held at the football field, Eunice fans usually wearing red and white, were dressed in purple. The prayer service included a moment of silence, prayer, followed by Purple and Gold Balloons being let into the night sky.
