Once, when my judo club from Ft. Benning, GA, had a meet in Tuscaloosa, we all went out afterwards for dinner with Bear Bryant ( he and the major who was the head of our club were old college buddies ). We had so much fun - Bear Bryant was crazy. There was a fish tank at the restaurant we were at - he put his hand a pulled out a goldfish and ate it! That was back in 1962.
