DAWG TRIVIA

Post it. I've always heard the story one way, so if I'm wrong I'd love to be corrected.

What call nearly got Larry banned from the airwaves? Quote it, give the game (team/year) and the play on which it happened.

I'm not even going to pretend to know this one. I'm just anxious for the answer!!!!!

Okay, turns out I heard the story correctly but interpreted it incorrectly.

I knew Larry came to Atlanta in 1966, and I knew that he took the Georgia job in '66 as well. I failed to recognize that the baseball season starts in April, whereas football starts in September. So yes, Larry did call Braves games in 1966 and 1966 alone.

Rats. I hate it when I catch myself talking out of my rear orifice.

It was the Lindsay Scott touchdown call against Florida in 1980. Specifically, \"Man, is there going to be some property destroyed tonight!\" WSB folk were afraid Larry would be accused of inciting a riot and he was sternly disciplined.
