Danny Hodge

Some of you oldtimers will remember wrestler Danny Hodge. He was an outstanding high school and college wrestler. He was the only amateur wrestler to have been on the cover of Sports Illustrated while still an amateur. The Dan Hodge trophy is the wrestling equivalent of the Heisman. One remarkable feat he accomplished is pictured below. While he was 80 years old, he crushed an apple with one hand on the floor of the Oklahoma House of Representatives.
