The grainy film and vintage photos take you back in time. The eight-minute video celebrates Stillwater's 1967 Class 2A state championship, the only state football title in the Pioneers' history.
But something about the video is startling. The narrator. The voice sounds stunningly familiar, yet out of place.
Yes, it sounds like John Facenda, but how could the legendary narrator of NFL Films, with a Voice of God sound, be telling the story of 1967 Stillwater football? How could the man whose voice forever will live with “frozen tundra” and “autumn wind,” the man who died in 1984 but whose voice defined a football era, be describing the '67 Pioneers the way he would the '76 Oakland Raiders.
