    Happy Thanksgiving all.
    Does anybody else remember the old tradition of playing The UGA Tech JV game on Thanksgiving ? It was as much a part of the holiday as turkey and tolerating distant relatives.

    JV game? No, it was the freshmen game. There was a charity attached, but do not recall what it was. Was a big deal. I believe Lockheed flew the C5A Galaxy aircraft over the field as the National Anthem was being played. (May have been the Saturday game. Sorry.)

    Is that like a mini-sub or something being loaded onto the plane?

    Yes it is. Had many choices of photos, so I chose an exotic.

    Just woke up from my turkey stupor, hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. Got to ice my adult beverages down for tomorrow. Going to be a bit chilly tomorrow.

    If I remember correctly, it was considered the "JV game" but was all freshman teams on both sides. Pretty sure it benefited Scottish Rite Hospital. Bull Pups vs. the Baby Jackets. Attended a few on Thanksgiving Day back then. Was a fun and great tradition leading up to the "big game".....
