cinder track in 1979. Look at the scoreboard. Even if one doesn't believe it's from 1975, it is provably pre-1979, because the scoreboard underwent a major upgrade in the late 1970s. (see link to photo of the scoreboard showing the final score of the September 8, 1979 MU v San Diego State game.) I'm unclear as to what Tigrrrr! is saying.
