Had a good friend who was a manager for the baseball team around '80 to '82, so I'd go to a few games. Remember seeing Ole Miss, I think on a Friday afternoon, and there were just a few girlfriends, relatives, and a couple of old timers. Jake Gibbs was the OM coach at the time, and I remember one of the old timers heckling him on a trip to the mound, telling him to just go ahead and punt the ball The Box was a better place to study than the library in those days.

I went in '81 or '82 with my dad to an afternoon game on a weekday. Only a few people were there. After the first inning or so, the concession guy came up to us in the stands and said, "Hey, if y'all want anything to drink, you need to get it now. We're closing the concession stand due to poor attendance."

My how things have changed.
