I will never forget this game.  I had an event I had to attend that day, but me and a couple of buddies snuck out to the parking lot to listen to the final minutes of the game on the car radio.

Similar story for me.  I was with 2 buddies who were LSU fans.  We were driving to Baton Rouge to watch an LSU-UT game that night.  The radio broadcast was sketchy, but we got it enough to understand what happened.  I cheered; they booed!

Great memory. Bama was undefeated until the first game played in the loneliest village.  The old intro says 1989 was our last time up there, but of course we beat them there in 2011.

Sitting here watching the 1993 Sugar Bowl vs Miami and Keith Jackson and Bob Griese is calling the game. I always liked Keith Jackson he always pulled for Alabama. He was from Bremen, Ga just over the road about 20 miles from where I live. RTR!
