Just the sound of J.C. Politz radio voice describing Billy Cannon punt return against Ole Miss on Halloween night 1959 gives me a thrill that I remember very clearly like it was only yesterday.
Because all of the LSU tiger football fans became winners in spirit after that run wherever they were at that time.
In spite of all the odds, Billy Cannon ran right thru most of the Ole Miss college football players on a wet football field anyway. And because of the radio broadcast, LSU football fans could listen in to that college football game of the two undefeated football teams, Ole Miss vs LSU.
We just loved it. Because of Billy Cannon shocking punt return, the LSU fans were there in tiger stadium transformed into a dream state of happiness. Along with the people who were also lucky enough to hear that Ole Miss vs LSU football game on the radios broadcasted across Louisiana, Mississippi, and the southeast.

You do realize that WWL was a true clear channel that could be heard nationwide in 1959?
