I saw both Heisman trophy winners, Billy Cannon and Joe Burrow, play in Tiger Stadium (for you guys that can't read....that means in person.....in Tiger Stadium, Tulane Stadium, etc) I would really like to know if there are others who had this privilege.

I once got $5 in change and it was a counterfeit, so I feel as if I've seen Cannon's brilliance in person

Well... they show the cannon run almost every single home game on the jumbo tron.
SO, I guess anyone that went to a game in 2018 or 2019 have both seen them in Tiger Stadium.

I saw Cannon several times in Tiger Stadium (as a bonus I saw him play in high school), but the only time I saw Burreaux play in person was at ATT Stadium against Miami.

Saw Cannon playing the ponies one time if that counts.

That's pretty awesome man. Were you old enough during Cannon's years to really appreciate them?
Congrats man and I hope life is going well for you these days.

I saw Cannon's first game in Tiger Stadium in 1955. I was a freshman at LSU and Istrouma played my high school, St. Aloysius, in the state South Louisiana Championship. Aloysius got the hell beat out of them but Cannon not only ran the ball, he played db with an interception, kicked extra points and punted.
Interesting by note, Istrouma attempted 3 passes, completed 0 and had 2 intercepted.
Istrouma won 33-7.
I saw Cannon play in Tiger Stadium for all 4 years of his matriculation.
I have been in Tiger Stadium for most of Burrow's games the past two years.

I did. I call my grandson 2 times per week to make sure he always knows that story of me. Not many whom can say it in the stadium. Us geezers are just here to tell it like it is!

Awesome!! Thks for sharing!!! Back then was Tiger stadium ever referred to in any way as Deaf Valley not Death Valley that you remember?

And soon you will meet St. Peter at the Pearly Gates.
I kid. That is actually one of the coolest anecdotes that has been shared on this site. The Big Dick Joe hat guy may have a cooler anecdote but I digress.
