Steal the Bacon Play from 1967

Here is a clip of the Steal The Bacon play we ressurrected from archives!
It's hard to see, but #42 ,(that's me) breaks all the rules and slips between defenders to snatch the football after the punt almost rolls to the goal line. He then runs like hell as fellow teammates realized what happened and threw several key blocks that saved his bacon! We thought this funny play was lost to history until we dug it up at the Principia College archives! Some say it was 97 yds, but, I don't know- might have been 99!
Here it is at Youtube as well: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g1zuoAHUK-0&feature=user
