I was at #2.  I will never forget that game.  As soon as the kick went through, it started raining coke and bourbon in the student section.  Everybody just instinctively threw their cups up in the air as they raised their hands to signal that the kick was good, all at the same time.

Hard to take this too seriously.  #3 wasn't a "flea flicker".  It was a "hook and lateral", and the photo published in newspapers the next day proved it wasn't executed successfully.  The GA player who lateraled was on his knees before the lateral.  He was down; the play was over; Bama should have been the winner.

REPLAY TODAY...  :worship: :worship: :worship: :worship:

I remember #3 all too well.  It ticked me off when that "lateral" play happened and it ticks me off now just thinking about it!

A lot of good ones in there. I saw the so called flea-flicker game too. The Georgia player was clearly on his knee when he lateraled. At least we won the Natty that year.

E-cred for correctly calling it a "hook and lateral" as opposed to a "hook and ladder".  :clap:

That is exactly what I think about every time I hear an announcer call it "hook and ladder."  :lol2:

This is the play that the hook and lateral was named for, and yet the video is labeled "Hook and ladder".  :lol2:
