The Passing of Bob Lingenfelter

[PvilleHuskerTim]

While the name Bob Lingenfelter may not be well known to most of you on the board, this former Husker All-Big 8 and honorable mention AA (1976) offensive lineman passed away on Wednesday night. He was a better husband, father, and friend than he was a football player. He will be missed. RIP.

Me too. And lots of good football-playing Lingenfelters came after him.

At one time, there was a funny story about Big Bob getting a practical joke played on him as a rookie with the Browns. I don't recall the specifics. Does anyone know the story?
