Key West's Homecoming Traditions Turn 75
Seventy-five years have passed since the first Homecoming game, with the country electing a dozen presidents, wars being fought, and music evolving from sock hops to hip hop.
The world of 1950 differs vastly from that of today's high school students in 2025, with changes in technology, culture, and society, including the shift from black and white TV and segregated schools.
Despite these changes, Key West High School's football team will continue a beloved tradition, taking the field for the 75th annual Homecoming game, where the 75th Homecoming queen will be crowned during halftime.
The island still treasures its hometown traditions, uniting high school students of 1950 and 2025.
This week's event is a celebration of the school's enduring legacy and the community's commitment to its heritage.
