AND NOW WE KNOW . . . . RHONDA MARRIED WILLIE THE WILDCAT
I received a neat email from Rhonda Hendershott Strecker . . .
"Onnalee, I first met Glen when I went to a KSU game for band day and later, for cheerleader day, the year I was a senior in high school. At that time, they actually gave Willie the microphone and let him lead some cheers. He wore the old "furry" head, before the new Powercat was introduced. Thanks for posting, its always fun to tell other KSU fans that I married Willie!"
Hopefully, we can post some pictures of Willie/Glen later.
.
YES, GLEN STRECKER WAS WILLIE THE WILDCAT!
I have received 3 comments from "Anonymous" asking if Glen Strecker was Willie the Wildcat.
I have made it a practice to not post Anonymous comments but as soon as I received the first comment from "Anonymous" I sent the comment to Glen and Devin. Devin quickly responded and said that his Dad (Glen) was Willie the Wildcat.
I asked him for pictures and a story. I think he is having his Mom and Sister work on that for us.
This morning I received the 3rd comment from "Anonymous". I have decided that it does sound like the "real thing" and I thought everyone would enjoy it. Here it is . . . .
(A note to "Anonymous", we would like to have your name too.)
"Was curious about the Willie Wildcat.
GoPowercat board had a question about the first KSU FB game attended.
Mine was Band Day as a sophomore in Oct 69 against Iowa St & remember Rhonda going up to the rail to meet someone. May disrember the Willie stuff, but you would have made a great one. You could be kind of a clown when playing town team basketball ;).
Went back the following week with the Natoma Football team to see the OU 59-21 game.
Anyway, that is how I remember it ;).
Thanks for the old Paradise Pics."
