THE MEMORY SERIES I:
by Kenneth L. King
Born March 7, 1957 in Clarendon, TX
“The night before the Super Bowl I was having dinner with my parents. The defensive coaching staff of the Eagles was also having dinner at the same restaurant. There was a Raider and Eagles banner on the wall above the coaching staff. After they completed their dinner I noticed the Raider’s banner crumpled and under the table. I approached the defensive coordinator outside the restaurant and told him that because you crumpled and threw the Raiders banner on the floor it would cost you!
When I ran into the endzone on this pass, I could only think of the night before. It was payback time and as I spiked the ball, it went right in the direction of the Eagles head coach. Man, what a feeling!”

“THE FIRST RING”. Look at this amazing shot of Wendell Tyler from Super Bowl XIX on January 20, 1985. Tyler blasts through as Roger Craig throws a big block and the 49ers head to a touchdown that seals the game over the Miami Dolphins. Here it is — the way Wendell remembers it!
“We were in the third quarter in Super Bowl XIX before we broke the huddle I was thinking about my first Super Bowl XIV with the LA Rams that we lost. It was third down and four yards to go for the first down. Joe had called my play, it was an inside trap. I new if we got the first down, then we would score, and I could get my winning ring. I got the ball and saw Roger throw his block — he and his man went to the ground. The hole was more to the inside; I cut back into the hole and saw the linebacker number fifty one in the hole. Randy Cross our guard was on his way to block him, I was then able to pick up the first down and able to get my first Super Bowl ring.”

You have to love this shot of Rod Martin — the look of victory after winning Super Bowl XV. Not only did the Raiders win that Super Bowl, Rod Martin recorded a Super Bowl record — 3 interceptions in one game! That record has stood for over 26 years. Read below to get a sneak peak into what Rod was thinking during the celebration.
“Looking up with arms stretched towards the top of the Super Dome, with 3 fingers in the air on both hands indicating my 3 interceptions to the area in which my family and my Silver & Black family were sitting amongst all those green & white fans saying “We are the World Champions & I have a Super Bowl Record!!!”. I was thinking about our psp theme song that year “Celebration” by Kool and the Gang, singing ‘Celebrate Good Times Come On” and we are going to party tonight!!!!!”
Rod Martin still holds the record for 3 interceptions in a Super Bowl. His 3 interceptions are not only a Super Bowl record but they also tied linebacker Chuck Howley’s record for career Super Bowl interceptions. Martin is the only one to record all 3 interceptions in one game.

“The Warm Up” by Joe Montana is the first Montana Memothentic ever created. The memory is from Super Bowl XIX and it features a rare shot of Montana before the game. This is how Joe Montana remembered it:
“I was warming up my arm & body getting ready for our first possession in SB XIX. We are given the 1st 25 plays that Bill Walsh intended to run in the game on Saturday night before the game. I was running thru the order of the plays and their formations. I was also visualizing the pass plays in my mind and what I would do in different circumstances, like a blitz, if it were to occur. I was also going thru my reads and progression of receivers, for different possible defenses that the Dolphins played. All for nothing at this point since we fumbled the kick off.”

Affectionately known as “Mr. Cowboy”, his name was the first inscribed in the “Ring of Honor” above Texas Stadium.
Bob Lilly was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1980 and he was ranked #10 on The Sporting News’ list of the top 100 Greatest Football Players.
This is his memory of a sack that caused a 29 yard loss in the Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl XI victory:
“It was near halftime and we were in a fierce game against Miami during Super Bowl VI. We felt they were going to pass the ball on this down and we called a double stunt between our defensive tackles and ends. With the tackles going first I split the gap between the offensive guard and tackle making a clean escape into the Dolphins back field. Bob Griese saw me and started to run to his right, but defensive end Larry Cole had also made a clean escape on the left side of our defensive line. Griese saw him and tried to drop deeper to gain time to throw the ball away. Larry Cole and I had him corraled and I caught him for a 29 yard sack.”
