Showing my age but yeah......remember the sign and the stations that carried the gas.

Shoot more that I look at it ......you are right we do have some old and odd and strange folks on the board and I am one of them at times......good post.

My daughter about twenty years ago said I was lost in the fifties and she is right at times........but it was a good time to grow up in.Hang loose my friend.

Gosh if we get 22 mil from espn .........and I know little of tech debt but we should be able to fund a bunch of recruiting trips with this kind of jack.

Yep Jim has his board up and many of us will post on it but that doesnt mean we will leave this board...I have posted on the Hive...stingtalk and others and like them all and this board is going to be a good one with all the discussion about tech football.

The Go team,the White Team and the Chinese Bandits .The Bandits killed time so the first teamsers could rest but man were they popular in tiger stadium and many wore chinese hats and were so vocal when they checked in.Not all that talented some said but on a Saturday night in Baton Rouge...

Yep two platoon football changed Tech and other schools during late fifties.Dodd said he didnt have talent to play both sides of the ball.Ole Miss like other schools in SEC had plenty of tricks up their sleeves and they did well from 57=60 which up the win loss vs tech.

1959 Billy the Animal Cannon breaks 100 tackles on a punt return and then get this.........made a big tackle on the goal line to preserve the victory.Sugar Bowl the rebs kicked butt 21-0 I think.Cannon was a animal........ran the 100 in 9.5,weighted 220 lbs.........threw the shot over 50 feet...
