I actually got to watch "Pistol" Pete play, SSgt (Join to see), baggy socks and all! Auburn hosted LSU on 7FEB68, and I was there to watch the game. Believe it or not, the Auburn Tigers beat Pete and the LSU Bengal Tigers, 74-69! COL Jean (John) F. B. SGT (Join to see) LTC Stephen F. COL Mikel J. Burroughs MSgt Chuck Jones

Thanks for the post. I am a big fan of Maravich. He was way ahead of his time and in my view the best player ever from a skills point of view. I agree with some of the comments made earlier that some of the teams and coaches did not know how to use his talents (and maybe this cleared the path for greats like Jordan, Curry and James). If nothing else, he made basketball a fun game to watch.
