villain189 Posted January 26, 2010 Posted January 26, 2010 Doubt anyone has this but worth a shot. I know I've got it somewhere but hunting it down is another story so figured I'd try here in case someone else more organized than me has it. Looking for the December 29, 1996 Buffalo News Sports Headline photo from the Jacksonville vs Buffalo playoff game. They had a shot of Kelly getting carted off the field by the tunnel endzone and my buddies and I were sitting first or second row in the background. It was the huge picture on either the Front Page of the News or if not the very front page definitely the Sports page headline photo. Was a very large photo. If anyone happens to have it can you scan and post that for me? thanks

I'm sure there would be a fee for using either one, but the quality would be pretty good.
bman Posted January 27, 2010 Posted January 27, 2010 It was at that game. If you find the photo, can you send me the link?
villain189 Posted January 27, 2010 Author Posted January 27, 2010 It was at that game. If you find the photo, can you send me the link? Yep...if/when I find it I'll definitely send you a link. Pretty sure I have it stored away somewhere, was just hoping to save myself the work of figuring out where it is.

If anyone happens to have it can you scan and post that for me? thanks I remember being at that game sitting in stunned silence when that happened, thinking it could be the last time Kelly ever played(it was), and how unbelievable it was to think an upstart Jaguars team could come in to Rich Stadium and defeat the Bills...

Big Turk Posted January 27, 2010 Posted January 27, 2010 ...thanks to a blown call (Kelly's knee was down before the ball came out). too bad there wasn't a blown call on the 78 yard TD run by Natrone Means "Business"....
KD in CA Posted January 27, 2010 Posted January 27, 2010 ...thanks to a blown call (Kelly's knee was down before the ball came out). It sure was. I was at that game too. It was a non-sellout so we bought them the day before and hoped in the car. Only Bills playoff game I've seen live.

That's the only game I went to by myself sat next to a guy from Australia. Spent a lot of time being a good Bills fan explaining the rules. I remember thinking the same thing when Kelly was carted off.

If anyone happens to have it can you scan and post that for me? thanks That would be interesting. That game was kind of the end of an era. Kelly's last game. I was at the game around the 20 yard line in front and when Natrone Means came up flexing his muscles in front of us after scoring a TD, the back of me got a little wet from the beer being thrown at him. Ironically a few years later, the kicker that beat us joined us for a year.
May Day 10 Posted January 27, 2010 Posted January 27, 2010 I think I have that at home... The headline reads "end of the road" or somehing like that.
bills44 Posted January 27, 2010 Posted January 27, 2010 ...thanks to a blown call (Kelly's knee was down before the ball came out). Chris Hudson (at least I think it was him) also gave Kelly an elbow/forearm to the head on the play, causing the fumble
