Keith Jackson remembered at Rose Bowl memorial

It’s been three months since Keith Jackson passed away at age 89, and on Sunday, he finally got a proper send off at the only location (other than Pullman) that made any real sense.

More than 400 people gathered at the Rose Bowl on a sunny Sunday afternoon to say their final goodbyes to the iconic voice of college football who also is one of the most famous and revered alumni of Washington State University.

As you might expect, Cougs played a large role in the proceedings, starting with a contingent of the marching band:
