00:00Boy, I tell you what I also love, too, was watching Breeze in Montana.
00:04I thought that was a great moment, watching those two guys talking, you know, and two great legendary players.
00:11And, Howard, when did they bring it out and put it out into the stadium?
00:15Because is that one of the things also that's changed?
00:18Because I remember years and years and years ago, it was a smaller type venue.
00:23And then all of a sudden, they put it in the stadium so that they can get the fan bases.
00:29That really has made that situation and that whole entire ceremony grow.
00:34It really has.
00:35And many people can envision that, you know, the Hall of Fame Museum and the cone at the top, basically.
00:42And they used the whole, the enshrinement, you know, the Hall of Famers and others, they sit on the front
00:49steps of the museum to, you know, for the enshrinement.
00:53And then people who were there, family and media, they'd be sitting on wooden chairs on the grass at little
00:59tables.
00:59And then the fans would be on the grass.
01:01And, you know, the trucks coming down Highway 77 in Canton would be honking their horn and all that.
01:08I don't remember, Dan, the year that it switched.
01:11But as they, you know, they renovated the stadium tremendously over the years.
01:16And then, like you said, they switched it there and makes it, you know, a lot more room for people
01:22to be there.
01:23A lot more people are able to come.
01:25And it's, you know, it's a great venue, you know, to have it in.
01:30And so, you know, so many things have grown over the first time I was here in 1980, believe it
01:35or not.
01:35And so many things are different about the Hall of Fame and everything around it.
01:40But it's, you know, most of it, obviously, it's all been changed for the better.
