Vandalism?
Noooooo. 😜

It's a problem if you're cutting out a square of astroturf, but with real stuff there are plenty of sod clods laying around that were dug out by cleats already. Stealing one of those is the most-extreme definition of "stealing."

Those Bill Peterson years were fun to follow.

Yes they were. And his potato chip commercials on his TV show were to die for. The one where he put one into his cheek instead of his mouth will linger in my memory forever. And his malapropisms are legendary.

I was there for the entire game with four other sorority sisters in full rain gear and a shower curtain we grabbed from one of the bathrooms since we were all going with football players and we “had” to be there. We were completely soaked after ten minutes.
Top five most miserable weather games for me both college and pro. This was back in the day when games were never canceled. You toughed it out or went under the stadium if there was lightning and waited for it to pass, which looking back was nutso in a metal erector set.
I’m surprised 25,000 souls still came out because Tally was truly a small town back then with lots of two lane streets and everything but Monroe and Tennessee and Appalachee were totally covered with huge canopy trees. Flooding everywhere.
But we won. Remember winning??!!

It appears you liked going out with football players. What position did you like best?

Prolly gonna get this wrong, but… “line up in a straight line and make a circle” lingers in my memory.
BTW, that summary of the season I posted featured a classic Bill McGrotha write up. He was old school and the Tally Democrat was better for featuring him.

And don't forget "Like two trains passing in the night."
