💙💛#BlazerLoveStories💛💙 It all started with a basketball game and a pizza date. 🏀🍕 In 1977, Pam was a 9th grader, and Jerry Don was in 10th grade when he took her to Pizza Inn after the girls’ district tournament game at Grubbs. She doesn’t remember who won that night—but she’ll never forget that it was the beginning of their #BlazerLoveStory. ❤️ From high school sweethearts to 43 years of marriage, Pam and Jerry Don have built a lifetime of love, laughter, and Blazer pride. 💙💛 Jerry Don graduated in 1979, Pam in 1980, and they married in 1981. Their Blazer legacy continued with their sons, Jarrett (’05) and Jace (’10). Some love stories start with a fairytale—this one started with basketball, pizza, and Valley View! 💛🏀 #BlazerPride 🔥
