It was a Oldsmobile.. We cut the fence the night before actually. I was part of it....It was a fun night... Old Army blanket over the fence.. and that's what Carl wore for a few hours at the "cop shop" afterwards......Stories get twisted somewhat, but for the most part, accurate.

Brian Taylor

No, Ray is on the fence. I have another picture that show's it even better. We all went to jail for 4 hours. What fun after gin and tonics in Ray's car.....Was planned for a good two months, with $ donations going to local charities.

Randy Warblow

They had 2 guys on the other side of the fence pulling his arms and police on his ankles. Think there was a getaway van parked nearby, they tossed the blanket over the fence as soon as he cleared the end zone.

I was at the other end of the field, he had an overcoat on and sneakers and we provided cover before he took off.

Susan Agnello-Eberwein

My God, those officers look so young! I have a copy of this picture…compliments of NTPD!!!!

Ernie Green

It's not me. I didn't start on the force until 1982.

Gregg R. Schnitzer

I think I was there. Halftime At Vetter; didn't the crowd surround the police car and chant "let him go,...let him go" ( to which they did not... ) then the 3rd quarter started and it was back to football.

Video of the 77 streaker From FB: Ok....I believe I have the facts! I will only give 1st name! It was Rick S[owden]!! He was trying to raise $200 to buy a car and if he raised it before the game, he would go through with it. MY MOTHER GAVE ME $5 TO PUT IN THE FUND!! ( probably why I remember so well!) And my sister was at the fence with a ladder and blanket that she threw over the top so he didn't get "spiked"!!
