Now George, after that wonderful weekend we spent together in Canton, you should know that I'm not the sort of guy to kiss and tell...

Besides, I don't want to ruin anyone's fantasy....

I don't know if it is the craziest, but it is one I will never forget. In real life Marcus Allen had this great way of gliding sliding or diving forward for his TD's. My little EF Marcus did that on numerous plays as he would run toward the endzone and gently dive over the line for the TD.

Yes, I am sure it was a case of balance and more vibes around the endzone but I will never forget the first time it happened and how beautiful it was. His base and figure combo were eventually retired and every now and then I put them on the field to see how he does. He still has it after 9 years.

Coaches that have been around from the earlier days of online forums have heard this one from me before. But it is still a unique event of the vibra turf. It still amazes me to this day. Best of all, it needs no dressing up. Truth can be stranger than fiction......

Back in the 80's and through the early 90's we ran a large league where we all passed w/the board running. I was the ref for this particular game. Coach A calls "pass", then audibles. Coach B audibles his D. Board goes on, receivers pop open, board stops. Coach A declares Primary and Secondary receivers, pivots both at the stem of their route. Coach B pivots his unengaged defenders into their coverages. 3 seconds had expired getting the receivers open leaving 2 seconds for Coach A to get off the pass. Board goes back on.... One thousand one..... Let Er Rip.... A frozen rope to a streaking slot receiver just inside the 10 yd line - a Fab5 RB (stiff arm) figure.

Ball clearly strikes the intended player at or about its forearm/wrist. Clearly because it stuck there. The split was wedged around the wrist. The player fell over near the GL and rolled into the end zone - rolled on its back which made it sort of hold the ball in the air as if to say "I caught it." Two refs, two coaches and a semi-full peanut gallery. No one said a word for what seemed like minutes (probably just a few seconds). On cue everyone fell to the floor laughing. Everyone except Coach B. Our guts were busted and we all had tears in our eyes.... Except coach B. Coach B chuckled but stayed upright. Then he looked at me w/a straight face saying something like "I'm not so sure where he hit the board when he fell. What's the call ref?" My reply was agreement. I wasn't exactly sure where the ball should have been marked either and it happened right under my chin. I told the coach so but had to inject.... You know I have to call that a touchdown. No one argued or even protested. Not even Coach B.

I have tried to duplicate that catch or a similar event many times. I have managed to stick it to a Wide Arm figures ankles for a few seconds at best a couple times but nothing quite like that one catch. I will never forget it as long as I still have 3 remaining brain cells. I am happy to have witnessed it, especially from the vantage point I had. It remains the most monumental of all my hobby experiences.

George,

They had NFL teams when you were 12 or 13? Come on George! You meant to say those red and white tin players didn't you?
