O.J., I also remember Sandman.

I think you were also at this particular joint Bama-UT tailgate on The Quad in T-town.

I believe it was the 6-3 game, and Sandman brought tons of cigars for the winners. We gathered around him after the game,  and he generously passed them out to those of us wearing Crimson. I doubt he would remember me as I was just one of the many Crimson Tide fans there, but I was personally so impressed by him.

So sorry to hear this news.

Yes.  There's a link to the All Time Schedule/Results in the news section at the top of the board (though it needs to be updated to add 2017).  :thumbup:

The reason I thought it was 2005  because one of my daughters married her &$#@ husband on THAT DAY!!! I about LOST IT when she told me she was getting married on the 3rd Sat in October. Her Mother and me were divorced and I figured her Mother did it just to pi$$ me off. I told my daughter.....you are marrying a guy that agreed to get married on that day....I didn't like him before and didn't like him after.

But like a good Dad I walked her down the isle.......But during the reception I kept going out to the car to check the score :laugh:

I will reach out to his wife as well.  I saw him at the softball games last spring so will find out what I can!  I hoped I had prompted him to consider weight loss surgery when he saw what it did for me.
