Milt Campbell

The field is in pretty good condition considering the rain of the last week.

In deep receiving position to the goal line to our left, as we are high on the west side of Briggs Stadium, will be Jimmy Brown and Milt Campbell.

Kicking off, Jim Martin.

The roar of the crowd is now subdued.

It is rolling back toward the goal line.

It is recovered at the 15-yard line by Detroit.

We will credit Kerry Barr of the defensive secondary in on the kickoff team of Detroit for recovering that fumble at the Cleveland Browns 15-yard line as Milt Campbell fumbles.

And Detroit has their second break in just a couple of moments.

The coaches are talking, what are we going to do? We have to just give up the six points here or whatever.

And Milt Campbell overhears this.

And he says, hey, you know what? I'll go out there.

Comes down out of the stands, basically.

I just do it I've talked to all kinds of Olympians.

I had a very good friend of mine, Milt Campbell, who's gone now, God bless him, but he was a gold medal decathlon winner.

That means that on that day, he was the greatest athlete in the world.

That's huge.
