Hey, boomer is hooked up to a car battery!
I like the Astros helmet
The old orange seats!
The first Scrappy?
Nice shorts. Don't gripe about today's student attendance.

I'm not sure the battery in an AMC Matador qualifies as a "car" battery or not. I would be surprised if it put out enough current to set Boomer off!

The guy in the Expos hat is, I believe, our beloved SUMG.
I recognized Dino Malave, Bret Adams, Keith Lehman and a couple of other guys whose names I can't remember. All old Talons. I think I am the guy on the left in the picture with the UT cheer vehicle and the Model A, in Austin, along with John Reeder, Don Parker and John Reese. All of these guys were part of the crew that drove the Model A to the away games (often on trailer, but a few times we drove that thing).
I think it is Reese by himself with the cannon.
Thanks for sharing.

That NLU game had to be in the early 80's. The old cinder track was still in place. Man, if people think that Fouts is a crappy facility now.......

Great pics, thanks for posting. Brings back many memories of "earlier" Fouts and SuperPit.

Yes, they did indeed install burnt orange seats in The Super Pit. "Earth tones" were big in those days! Why in the world would you want to install green seats in a school that calls themselves the Mean Green?
Actually, the orange seats may have been all right. We have gone through at least six shades of green since I was first a freshman in 1971 and I don't give the current shade of green, which may be the worse yet, much of a chance.
