[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 151933, member: 265"] My father was killed in an aircraft accident in 1949 when I was 3 and my brother had just been born. He was test flying one of the first jets that the Navy had sent to his squadron and the ejection seat didn't work. We moved back to Atlanta and my maternal uncle decided to be a surrogate father to us. He was an industrial engineer and had been a BMOC athlete (track and baseball) when he was at Tech. He brought me a Tech sweater and a rat cap. He also took me to Tech football games and other athletic events. It made me a Tech fan for life. Not so my brother. He couldn't go with us because he was too young. He grew up a Dwag, but he's grown out of it, thank God. Oth, my son got the same treatment from me that I did from my uncle. He's an even bigger Tech fan then I am and we have a great time watching the games. [/QUOTE]
