Throwback Thursday: Harvard-Yale

Harvard beats Yale, 29-29.
Harvard beats Yale, 29-29.

With Harvard-Yale around the corner (two days!!) and it being Thursday and all, it’s only fitting that my Instagram-obsessed self have a little Harvard-Yale TBT powwow!

Here’s a quick trip down memory lane!

#tbt 1: to 1968 the legendary game which prompted the Crimson’s headline the next day, “Harvard Beats Yale 29-29.” #confused #didwewin #didwetie

#tbt 2: to 1983 where parachuters sailed into the Yale Bowl to celebrate the 100th anniversary of The Game. #classy #bringthemback2013

#tbt 3: to our stadium in 1907, four years after it opened! #stilllooksthesame #old

#tbt 4: to 1901 when football had no helmets or pads! #ouch #ratchet #ouch

#tbt 5: to the 1892 Harvard Varsity Football Team fall season photograph. William H. Lewis was the first African American named to a College Football All-American Team. #damn #theyhadit #westillgotit

#tbt 6: to the Harvard Freshman Football Squad in 1951 #frosh
