Remember that scene in
Grease when the Pink Ladies and T-Birds meet up at the pep rally for the 'big game'? And how it seemed like the most fun ever, unless you were a nerd, in which case it was incredibly frightening? That's the kind of vibe we get from Brian Finke's
2468 series.
The American photographer has documented teenage footballers and cheerleaders with the precision of an anthropologist, completely removing himself from the process and letting the action unfold around him. His images are funny, camp, sometimes resemble a cheerleader themed drag show and often look like stills from
Remember the Titans. Nerds beware!
