Being a 14 year old kid and hearing that your favorite pro-athlete and childhood idol is dead is pretty rough. This day 13 years ago sucked.

I only remember DT "calling" for a safety twice and that game was one of them. edit: Sept 11th, 1994, SF @ KC was the other game i was thinking of, where DT called a safety and then got it. That time it was Steve Young and KC won the game 24-17. According to Carl Peterson's HOF induction speech for DT, Thomas "called" his shot 3 times and got it, but i only remembered those two. |
RIP to the greatest father ever.
5 wives 8 kids DT |
Tis sad indeed. I remeber the day of his accident. We were drving back from the airport and the snow; a drive that normally took 45 minutes wound up being 2.50 hours. It was an unholy mess.
My daughter and I were at the Lake Arrowhead game and got soaked. Who knew that 10 year old camping ponchos would leak? We were really concerned that someone would drown on the field. I still have my Lake Arrowhead picture (from a local photographer) proudly hanging on my wall. |
RIP DT. I was the only KC fan in ohio lol. I was like 12 he crashed the day after my birthday and to this day I can't talk about it without getting a year in my eye. It was such a shock as a kid for your favorite player to die. My greatest day was a few years ago in Miami after the dolphins chiefs preseason game, I got to meet his mom. She was talking to TG. It was like getting to meet a piece of DT. I had her sign a KC shirt and to this day haven't washed it. I keep it clean and make sure not to **** it up

Great father.

I remember the day the accident happened. We were in St. Joseph and were headed home to Topeka. About 10 miles out of St. Joe, traffic was backing up and they detoured us over some of the worst roads I've ever seen. Let us back on 29 at Platte City and we had to get into Kansas before the roads we halfway decent. When we finally got back home, turned on the news and heard what happened. Such a waste of talent.

He was fun to watch. Always exciting and anything could happen at any moment. It was a great time to be a Chiefs fan. RIP
