JM, that was 1983. He worked with the guy that took up tickets. He told him "Just bring those Pittsburgh tickets to the Vandy game and I'll let you in." I can't imagine them letting that go on now. I remember that Pitt game. The Panther mascot scared me to death, because you could see the guy's face, through the mouth of the suit. No way they let something like that slide today. Shame. Everybody knows Coalfield Herman. He should get a pass no matter what. That bunch in the morning messed their bed by banning him.

Hard to believe their were tickets still available the night before. Especially in that day and age. Heavyweight champ in his first defense in his home town and they couldn't sell that out? Crazy. What's funny about that, is there still must have been 50,000 people in Stokely that night. Because I can't tell you how many people try to tell me they were there that night.

I don't think that Reggie allowed Pitt to get a first down in the entire first half of that game. Johnny still managed to lose it though.
