When he caught what turned out to be the game-winning pass in the 2017 College Football National Championship, Hunter Renfrow wasn’t thinking about celebrating with his teammates. Nope, he was thinking about the Stanford Band.
After John Elway led his Stanford team on a last-second scoring drive, which appeared at the time was going to be a victory against his rival, the California Bears, in their 1982 meeting, the Stanford Band came onto the field before the Cardinal made a tackle on the ensuing kickoff. The band got in the way, after the Bears used five lateral passes to score the winning touchdown.
