[QUOTE="jacket_fan, post: 466120, member: 3527"] I grew up in Atlanta in the 70s and was agnostic between Tech and Georgia. After high school I tried to play college ball at another school. After a few injuries and getting dumped by a girlfriend, I came home to Tech to study Aerospace Engineering. After the first game in flash cards, I was in but in, and a loyal fan ever since. Coming to Tech was the best decision I made as a teenager. I recall the same exciting games each of you mentioned. For others that sat in flash cards back in the day, remembering the second half of the game was usually a challenge. I do recall the Notre Dame game with whisky bottle being winged from the East Upper Deck. Amazing runs by Eddie Lee Ivory. And cussing Pepper. GT_05, I tell my friends that I helped win that UVa game. I was in the East Upper Deck and from the railing and in a hoarse loud voice I yelled at the head lineman "Call holding both ways" and he looked up at me. That was right before halftime. Go back and look at the holding calls against UVa in the second half. For those UGa graduates that are Tech fans, I tip my hat to you. It is hard being a Tech fan. [/QUOTE]
