But by the time the '66 NFL Championship Game rolled around, I was a hard-core fan. Somewhere in my stash, I still have the special inserts from the Dallas newspapers (there were two back, the Dallas Morning News and the Dallas Times Herald) that were printed for that game. I also have the inserts for the Ice Bowl, for SB V and for SB VI. Not as extensive as Judith's scrapbooks, I'm sure, but I treasure them nonetheless. I'd like to meet her -- I'll bet she took some ribbing from her classmates, because back in those days, most girls weren't into football, and her devotion to the Cowboys probably was greater than most of the boys she knew.

I have a couple of old newspapper clippings from the early Cowboy days that a collector sent me some time back. They are prized possessions. Judith was 16 in 1961, that makes her 62 now. Barring some unfortunate events, she is likely still alive but likely to have a different last name. Odds are her mom threw out her scrap books when Judith went off to college... :( That would be nice to see.
