Had painting for years of scene from 1966 Cotton Bowl where Tigers beat #1 Arkansas 14-7. Tigers 2 scores came on identical sequence of plays.....four runs in a row by Labruzzo behind my uncle, tackle David McCormick. Painting was of Pat Screen in background, having just handed off to Labruzzo, who is following the block of McCormick. Irony is that Screen and Labruzzo took their own lives and Uncle David had a massive heart attack and died at 41. Painting was owned by Cholly Mac who gave it to my aunt late in his life, telling her that the '66 Cotton Bowl was his biggest win ever.
