Don't listen to him, he's probably drunk.
But not off a fake ID!

Fake ID or not...drunk is drunk. At least I can hit on females my age and it's not creepy. :p :D
Let me just tell you about a cousin of mine who was macking on Ua women when I was your age, Charlie had a 20 y/o hottie at ALL times, he was in his late 40's. I would visit him at his house in Fosters whenever I was in town, it was like a damn hottie convention. You get my age and you will be surprised what you can hit on, and it not be creepy!

Let's not forget about one of B'Ham's pro football champions--The Americans.

The Birmingham Americans were the most successful of the World Football League franchises. Founded late December 1973, they led the league in attendance and had also won all 13 home games at legendary Legion Field. Led by Jack Gotta, the former Ottawa Rough Riders coach put together a solid squad-including veteran quarterback George Mira, rookie passer Matthew Reed, fullback Charley Harraway, wide receiver Dennis Homan, and former St. Louis Cardinals and Auburn standout safety Larry Willingham. During the offseason, Americans owner, Bill Putnam, signed some 20 NFL players, including such names as Oakland Raiders quarterback Ken Stabler and Pittsburgh Steelers L.C. Greenwood.

As it turned out in that first, and only season, the Birmingham entry didn't need any NFL "futures." The Americans did well with its first squadron by shooting out of the gate to win their first 10 games. Although they slumped to a .500 record in the second half, it was enough to finish second, behind Central Division winning Memphis, at 15-5. After beating The Hawaiians in the semi-finals, 22-19, the Americans advanced to the league's title game. It was at Legion Field that the first Birmingham team won the only WFL championship game the league ever staged, beating the Florida Blazers in World Bowl I, 22-21. The team had the best attendance of any team in the WFL. Soon after, however, due to financial duress, the Americans' uniforms were confiscated for nonpayment. The Birmingham franchise was soon taken over by the re-formed "new" World Football League. A new team came in 1975 known as the Birmingham Vulcans.

If you run across a copy of The Birmingham Post-Herald's sport page (Or was it the Birmingham News? I can't remember which) for December 6th, 1974 (the morning after World Bowl I) you might catch a glimpse of Factor and his cronies celebrating the victory on the field with the Birmingham Americans. One of my buddies even attempted to hoist the World Bowl Trophy up.

I wish I could give y'all a few more details, but the thrill of the event, itself, and ever-flowing concessions left the evening pretty much a blur. :lol:
