When the town of Nowata votes to cancel its losing high school football team, the Possums, a local radio announcer decides to keep broadcasting imaginary games, team or no team. Now it seems the Possums are so good, they're going all the way to the state championship. That is, until the real state champs hear about it and challenge the Possums to a real game. Will it be a fantasy come true? Or will Nowata lose more than its small-town pride? (official distributor synopsis)
