    The stadium where the Colts and Orioles played in Baltimore. I think it was named Memorial. I think the UL player was Lenny Lyles.

        In the day of Unitas, Lyles and the RB (Can't remember his name) that ran like a Mack Truck, the Colts were not easily beat there. They had an awesome defense also.

          I had forgotten about Lyles. If I'm not mistaken, Johnny U. attended U of L, as well.

                    Yep, Maybe the greatest hockey player ever. I saw him play in DC at the end of his career when he was with the NY Rangers. You could just tell then there was an aura of greatness about him. He scored two goals that night by just hanging around the goal and banging in the rebounds.

                          If no one gets it, from this hint, I'll reveal the answer this afternoon. This well-known player spent his career in two cities known as much for beer as for their sports teams.

                            A player at OK State named Reeves had that nickname. Quite a few others too. Enos Slaughter did,the old baseball player from the 40's. Country Joe West an umpire in the MLB has that nickname too. Don't know which one you were aiming for but that's three of them for a start.

                              I'm impressed.

                                Actually, I believe, Reeves nickname is Big Country.
