As a Ten Year Old Boy ~ I was Lucky enough to watch Billy in The 1952 Norte Dame game in South Bend on a 10 inch B&W TV ~ "The First Ever National Televised College Game" - and Also "The Day" I became a *SOONER FAN*
And Four Years Later in 1956 I sat in the South End Zone in South Bend Ind. and Watched Tommy McDonald ~ Clendon Thomas ~ Jimmy Harris - DESTROY Norte Dame 40 to 0
Life Was Good....~~! :)

1952 to 2009 ~~ 57 Years and Still Rockin'
It's Time For Number 8 ~~~ :)
