LaFayette vs Lanett game halted by nearby shooting Published 8:30 am Tuesday, September 23, 2025Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...LAFAYETTE —What may have been the final football game to be played between LaFayette and Lanett high schools at Bulldog Stadium was marred by a fatal shooting that took place just outside the stadium during halftime. With school consolidation on the way, there may be no LaFayette High in 2027, when the game would be scheduled back in LaFayette. Anyone who has ever been to a LaFayette High home football game knows this is the very heart of Bulldog Nation. Excitement is in the air and much anticipation of a football game and the halftime show. It’s so sad a fatal shooting took place in the heart of Bulldog Nation on game night with your big rival.
