Here’s Doug Flutie executing the first successful drop kick in decades. This is yet another reason why I love BB. He has an appreciation for obscure records like this.
Growing up a couple towns over from Flutie’s hometown of Natick I used to play pick up hockey with him at West Suburban Arena. He would show up and play goalie, and seeing that I was pretty good he would ask me to take shots on him. He was competitive even then. A really great guy, and it was always fun scoring on him even though he wasn’t that good.
