....someone else. In memory of, in honor of, in tribute to.... just thought it would be nice to hear some of those stories again. And it's my view this game was big enough to accommodate them all!!
I will start with this. Last Monday as I added up the costs of tickets, air fares, hotels....you know the drill - I asked myself is it worth it? Then I remembered 1978 when my mother, aunt, sister, and some cousins all piled in my mother's car and drove to Jacksonville for the Gator Bowl. The infamous Woody Hayes "punch 'em out" game. My mother passed away 10 years ago yesterday. My sister and I decided that heck yes we're going. In memory of our mother because she was a huge Tiger fan. And if I know her she was directing a little bit from above!
