For the older folks: my father played wide receiver #83 in 1973 I believe for auburn jv. I was hoping someone might remember David Hoffman or have a picture of his playing days. Any information would be great!

Your Dad was prolly in the crowd that night when AU started the STREAKING movement. Culminated in coeds hanging out 4th Floor windows naked with rag over head. Man every girl on that floor had a date that weekend- Nearly turned into a deadly riot when some city policeman arrested a streaker-

We didn't have cell phone cameras at that time. For that matter we didn't have cell phones.

Name doesn't ring a bell. Did he only play that one year with the JV team as a walk on?

Only pics posted back then were made from an easel and posted on trailer walls, alongside the 3' x 4' WAR EAGLE HIGHWAY sign that somehow ended up in living room during soph yr-

Crowd gathered to see streakers behind new coed dorms, and all of a sudden a female does a pole dance on ledge of 4th floor window, wearing only a navy blue scarf over her face and a vertical smile- Crowd went wild and quickly grew to over a thousand- Then other coeds tried to match the first show-

Heck, didn't even have push-button phones. Anybody ever experience the joy of watching a youngster just poke her fingers into the holes of a rotary-dial while wondering why nothing was happening?

If you go to youtube there is actually a video of one of the mass streaks that happen at the ROTC field. I would strongly suggest NOT to post the video on AE.

Oh it definitely happened. My wife and I had just gotten home from the movie Godfather I or II, I can't remember which but I heard this tremendous roar on campus. I told my wife I wanted to see what was going on so I got on my motorcycle and headed to the drill field (don't even know if it's there anymore). The scene was incredible. Hundreds of students milling around. Most with their clothes on but a bunch in their birthday suits just running around. Of course the campus cops came and tried to break it up but it was pretty much out of control. Everything ended peacefully as I remember. I think Golf and I have discussed this and seems to me he was in attendance also.

What say you Golf?

:thumbsup:

I walked on in 75 and finished in 79, but do not remember David...sorry.  No one would remember me as well unfortunately lol

If you have a picture to post of him It might jog my memory though if he was still there in 75 or later.

In all seriousness AuburnCheese, if all else fails, call the athletic department. Somewhere there is going to be an archive of team photos, even the JV. Gonna take some work, but you'll find one.

^^This^^ is true you will have to be persistent. If they fail to help next time you're in Auburn go see someone face to face.

I had thought of a joke involving golf toting around a 3 iron when most were carrying a 6 iron....on average.

:rolleyes:  Something about holding it above your head in a lightning storm because even God can't hit a 1 iron.
