I'd love to hear any stories or memories that you might recall, like what the people around you were saying when Dempsey trotted on the field to try the kick, the reaction after he made it, etc.

My favorite part of the gif above is the referee's reaction as he raises his arms to signal the kick was good. His body language says "Holy shite, he made it!!"

that kick happened long before I was a sparkle in my daddy's eyes

but my favorite story about that kick was that the radio broadcast was doing down b/c bees were getting into the transmitter
