The house located on 704 W High St in Urbana, Illinois that was pictured on the cover of midwest emo band American Football’s 1999 eponymous debut album. Being the only image attached to the band for years, it has become something of a meme within indie/emo circles. Any trve emo enjoyer must make a pilgrimage to the house at some point in their life.
American Football Fan #1: Are we ever gonna make our pilgrimage to the American Football House?
American Football Fan #2: Let’s drive down there over spring break, there’s gonna be a house show and party.
