Smoking cigars at practice?

Maybe Moff knows if this is true, but I recall stories of Stams and maybe Ned Bolcar smoking cigars under their helmets during practice, and then blowing out the smoke as they ran the drill and made the tackle

If that is true, I wish I was there to see it.


That was Wes Pritchett. One of the old timers watching

practice from the sidelines was smoking a cigar and Wes took it and started smoking while playing MLB. Clouds of smoke coming out of his helmet to go with that wild eye southern boy look. Not out of character for him. He also continued playing in the 1988 Miami game with a broken hand and had about 12 tackles thereafter. He once punched me in the arm in practice just to gauge my reaction. No windup, just a friendly little jab. I felt like I’d been hit by a baseball bat. He was that rare combo of National Merit Semi-Finalist and badass linebacker. It could have been Frank too re the cigars but I know it was Wes. Good times.


The cigar came from Tim Prister if I recall correctly. *
