"Between the Lines"
David-Bringing back some memories, they had the report on The Santa Snowball incident that took place at Franklin Field while I was in college.
They interviewed Santa 38 years later and made for an interesting story. Besides Franklin Field being a cozy place to watch football games, Penn also had the Palestra on campus for Big 5 basketball games. Both facilities had plaques and photos from the early college teams of the 1900's which made for interesting strolls through the buildings. Fred |
Ummmm.... huh????? :dunno:
Someone been drinkin a lil bit of eggnog??? |
DrFred,
Yes an exc story...I got to CherryHill in '75, and although I worked outta the City and, went north of the Philly area in the early '80s, I still got addicted to the damn Beags. That snowball deal was passed down, as we used to throw them in the rare late season snowy games at the Vet, circa '78-'82. We/the crowd, would boo Santa and boo about anyone that was a cheap target; in 50 years of attending sports games in stadiums, I have never seen a crowd like the PhilaDelPhia "fans". They would boo their mothers if they dropped passes or gave up a goal. Hope ya'll doing fine in the great upper NY, Doc! BR,mD |
