You can't make-them-up this good.

I got a visit from my nephew who's a high school basketball coach and that reminded me of an old photo which I promptly got out to show him. Thought you might enjoy it.

This is from a trip I made in 2010 to Wilson AR. I drove through Turrell AR on the way. This sight was a break slamming jaw dropper. The Turrell basktball team is the Rockets. Their old coach Royce Upshaw must have been one helluva coach. The plaque reads:

Dedicated to the Memory
of
COACH
ROYCE UPSHAW

ERECTED 1969​

Sweet! I wonder if the person that it was in loving memory of had anything to do with it? Just curious.

I think the coach had to pass away to merit this remembrance. Maybe when I'm gone one of the colleges where I teach will erect a camera monument for me with a really big zoom lens.
