Is that the beginning of Anderson Arena in the background? Seems a bit early to me, but I can't remember exactly when Anderson opened?

yup. its AA. I thought the same thing that it might be a bit early, but it opened in the fall of 1960, so its just about right.

Well I'll be a monkey's bare-assed uncle. I could've sworn before that AA opened in '62 or '63, but on second thought I was mistaken. Good find. Thanks!

Now let's not start that discussion again.... :lol:

This is one killer photo..... Who here would pay $20 to get this photo and an autograph from one of the BG players? I know I would - It would look great on my office wall.

I'd probably pay $50 to have it blown up to 8x10 and signed by the guy scoring the touchdown, actually.

Exactly my thoughts - Someone email the AD with the idea. Split the cash with the player and the AD.
