29 years before 1969 was 1940. Literally before Pearl Harbor. I remember my dad coming home from attending the 1969 Michigan vs. Ohio State game. My mom and I ran out to the driveway to celebrate.

On an aside, before attending every game when I was a little older, I would devour the programs my dad brought home from every game... they no longer even sell programs at the Stadium.

    - Very cool. Even though I mocked big band music when I was young, later in life I would crank some up, when I was of course, in the mood.* - By jhamm August 18, 2026 at 03:21:45 PM
