In what barbershop did you hear this?

Human nature. Nothing against BC. As time goes on and details fade, and verification becomes more obscure, we take the opportunity to put a fresh coat of embellishment on them and turn them into super-heroes so we can trade fond stories around the campfire/dinner table. In this case, about -1/10 second every once in a while.

Watching the Halloween run - even in real time in full gear - it certainly doesn't appear he'd be capable of 9.4/100yd. That said, still the greatest in Tiger folklore.
