4. He went to Fat Patty's all the time for burgers and wings. 


5. In 1970, the Marshall football team's plane crashed killing all 75 people on board. Marshall football was always rich with tradition, but even more so after the tragic accident. The Thundering Herd football team takes great pride in honoring those who were killed.
