Title: TDMMC March Madness - RD 2 - CULTURE - Ralphie's Run vs. Terrible Towels Post by: Dave Gray on April 17, 2014, 12:12:59 pm http://www.thedolphinsmakemecry.com/forums/index.php?topic=22685.0
Terrible Towels breezed through against the one vote homer that chose the Marlins sculpture. http://www.thedolphinsmakemecry.com/forums/index.php?topic=22684.0 Raphie's Run handled Waving the Wheat, by a score of 7-3.

They are quite fun to wave around. I think I still have one in a box somewhere.

I didn't even vote for Ralphie's Run in the first round, but it is pretty cool. I just think that the Terrible Towels are iconic and inclusive. Those overhead stadium shots are pretty sweet.

He had an absolutely horrible voice for an announcer, but he was so damned funny and so damned dedicated to the Steelers that he became one of my favorite broadcasters of all time. Okel Dokel! Edited to add the following youtube link, where Myron Cope himself explains how the Terrible Towel came into existence... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kk7qTgTvbPw (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kk7qTgTvbPw) Title: Re: TDMMC March Madness - RD 2 - CULTURE - Ralphie's Run vs. Terrible Towels Post by: Brian Fein on April 17, 2014, 03:28:17 pm I hate the Steelers, but I have a Terrible Towel. Because when my cousin went to Pittsburgh, he brought me back one cause he knew I'd appreciate it as a football fan.
