Football Game is a musical representation of a farcical football game. Notice the annotations in the music. Since it's improvisatory, the rhythms are not all required to be exact. The goal (no pun intended) is to represent various aspects of a game, including an air horn, cheering, the coach chewing tobacco or a cigar, and an ambulance coming onto the field when a player is injured.
