What a great time I had reading everything. I think I remember nearly all-was there for many. But let me add a memory that goes way back. This is probably not totally correct but-- one of my favorites. Don't know the year, but it was the game which opened the "new" Vanderbilt stadium replacing Dudley Field. It was vs. Maryland, who had a good team. We were, well, not so good. The stadium was packed with Vandy fans. We were leading at halftime and although it probably was not planned this way, there were fireworks at halftime and the finale went off just as Vandy ran onto to the field. The crowd went absolutely nuts---I had never heard anything like that. We held the lead and I remember it was sort of quiet at the end because Maryland had the ball and I think most Vandy fans kind of felt that Maryland would score and we would lose. I don't remember if there was an interception or we stopped Maryland on downs but we held on for the win. Not a Mount Rushmore moment but it sure is a great memory.
