It was much more than a preseason football game between host Waiakea and Kamehameha on Saturday at Ken Yamase Memorial Stadium.
The score — Kamehameha 41, Waiakea 0 — gets second billing behind the beauty of the stadium, which seats 1,400 and sort of resembles Kamehameha’s Paiea Stadium.
Yamase Stadium’s seats are a little lower, which gives spectators the feel of being closer to the field.
Also, Yamase Stadium has no lights and probably won’t every have any unless there’s a benefactor who’s willing to fork over $2 million.
Plus, Waiakea would adhere to the Aloha good neighbor policy.
