Climb into the Time Machine

ToonDawg over at the Anti-Orange Page has the Preview of the 1892 Georgia vs. Auburn game at Piedmont Park in Atlanta. The article ran in the Atlanta Constitution on Feb. 7, 1892. It's a gem of a read. (Ht - dawgbone.net)

It was Atlanta's first "genuine game of college football."

Awesome stuff. Reminded me of "Ghosts of Herty Field."

There's no byline on those articles - is it safe to assume that Furman Bisher wrote them?
