KidRat,

That game was a classic.

I remember the day it happened. It was plastered on every news program.
The trombone player got squashed!

I didn't realize that John Elway was the QB of that game on the Stanford side.

Speaking of John Elway...
He was another great. Over shadowed by Montana.
Elway was a quarterback that was so good, that it could make a person hate him. Then he remained so good, that you had to admire him...

I remember Elway being able to pass the ball harder than any other QB I ever saw.
I was watching one game where the announcer describes a TD pass. If I remember correctly it went something like this:
"Elway drops back into the pocket, he rolls out the the right, then back to the left. He find a man open in the endzone. Elway fires a Split Fingered Fastball past two defenders and implants the ball into the chest of the wide receiver."

Probably happened with less than a minute on the clock...

That dude had one heck of an arm and was a fierce competitor.
