That play happened right in front of me, and I recognized the significance of it immediately. Hardin had knocked out Largent in their previous meeting that season, a hit over which he was fined. Largent had a great quote following the game, volunteering to pay him back his fine money.
Was at that game too, Like XLVIII, I can watch that play over and over and over again! :lol:
I was there too. I was SOOOOO drunk because it was one of the earlier presentations of a Sunday night game and we tailgated a few blocks from the stadium, watching both the day games in lawn chairs out of the back of a Suburban under a portable shelter. By the time we walked our way in I was literally cross-eyed drunk, but I remember just KILLING the Donks that night. The dome was just out of control after that hit.
We ended up passing out behind the Taco Bell on 4th because it was not safe to drive. I was on leave in the Navy through Xmas and even after getting back the guys in San Diego were talking about that Largent hit.
That was a fun year as I was able to watch the following Raiders game amongst 12s (crazy game) but the playoff game against Cincinnati was on New Years Eve. I was still vomit level hungover on the plane ride back to NTC San Diego 3 days later. Ahh.. the good ol' days.
