Was making some coin by then so flew him to the game and put him up. He still had his ticket connection though, obviously EZ (south) for that game. The Terrell pass break up was right there. Saw a few peeps outside the stadium wearing the Catholics/Convicts shirts but they had long sold out. Dad has been gone for more than 20 years, but one of our best times ever and remember it like it was yesterday.
