    I mentioned this a while back, but my dad (AE '57) flew a yellow jacket model airplane at halftime during his time at GT...

    Home Jersey Number Difficult to Read From the Stands

    Back when the SAT was 1600, I scored just about evenly... Compared to the incoming class, that was above 80% in English and below 80% in Math... Still managed to get out with a BEE..

    “What’ll ya have?

    Oh, man - Mrs. Winners... Loved that place... When I moved up north to No VA, I made a note of the Mrs. Winners on the drive down 85 to ATL... One on Archdale Road Exit south of Greensboro I remember in particular... Road trips before cell phones and Google Maps were a real adventure... :-)

    2018 Off Season Thread

    I can only imagine the nightmares of Marco Coleman that still awaken Scott Zolak at night... I think he had seven sacks, and just destroyed him all day long... Almost as good as the ***-kicking he gave David Brown a week or two later.... I saw this game with my Navy fraternity brother, who died...

    My dad (AE '56) was born with airplanes in his blood... Was big into model airplanes with the Flyin' Rebels over at Charlie Brown airport, flying the Yellowjacket at halftime shows in '55 and '56... Spent most of his career at Lockheed in Marietta, and ultimately build a VW-powered 2-seater...
