What was it like announcing at the famous LSU vs. Auburn "Earthquake" game of 1988?

Back then we used to actually say a prayer before the games instead of just observing a moment of silence. Normally, someone would record a prayer on a cassette and we'd play it after the band marched onto the field during pregame. For some reason, the prayer never got to us that week.

I started a mad search around the press box for a priest or minister to say the prayer, and eventually I found a Jewish Rabbi, Barry Weinstein, who was a guest in the press box. I said, "Rabbi, would you please give a blessing before the start of the game?" He happily agreed.

Now, mind you I had not been given any advanced notice of what he was going to say, and in fact when it came time to say the prayer he grabbed the microphone from me and shouted "Dear God (God, God, God, God)"—he seemed to be taken aback by the echo of his own voice, but he loved it. He absolutely loved it. The power of the PA is awesome the first time you hear your own voice over it.

He continued, "We pray, (pray, pray, pray)…for ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
