On This Day in Crimson Tide History:
February 20, 1942: Arthur "Tarzan" White, an All-American for the Crimson Tide from 1934-36 who went to play in the NFL for the New York Giants, used a sleeper hold to defeat villain Mike Chacoma (no, he was not from Auburn) during White's first local pro wrestling appearance. Chacoma, known as the "Oklahoma Meanie," wanted a rematch with White, who, for the record, earned his Ph.D. from Columbia and earned Phi Beta Kappa honors at Alabama.
February 20, 1996: Lester Cotton Sr. was born in Tuscaloosa, Ala.
Crimson Tide Quote of the Day:
"I was determined to block that field goal. There was no way I was going to let Alabama lose." – safety Stacy Harrison after blocking a field goal in the Tide's 9-6 win over Tennessee in 1990.
We'll Leave You With This:
Former Alabama golfer Dicky Pride had a hole-in-one at the Chubb Classic on Sunday. He finished tied for fourth place in the tournament.
