I was at that game too. Sat in the student section of the north end zone and had an up front and personal kind of view of Fuller making the reception. I take credit for that win since I had taken off my LSU jersey and put it back on inside-out. Rally jersey saved the day and caused an earthquake in Death Valley!

BTW, Happy Birthday, fellow Tiger! I'll remember that evening well into my Alzheimer's days that seem to be just around the corner.

I was at that game back in '88 and it really wasn't an earthquake. Back in those days, the seismograph was located in a building that was near Tiger Stadium, hence the reason why it registered. The seismograph has moved from that particular building to one that is further away from Tiger Stadium. I know this interesting tidbit from a professor that I had when I was in graduate school. FYI, LSU has had much louder games than that particular Auburn game and those games were never registered on the seismograph since it was moved to a different location on campus.
