A thread for the old timers. Remember Brookings Chili? Rupp's favorite.

Is that the place that Cotton Nash broke that transvestite's jaw?
Haven't heard about that one but what the hell, anything is possible. Cotton breaking a jaw. Sure that could have happened.

It's a story my dad told, I'm pretty sure it was Cotton. I know the transvestite was named Sweet Evening Breeze, and there is quite a bit on info on the internet about him/her. Anyhoo, Sweets swished into Brookings and slapped Cotton on the tush as s/he often would with the new recruits that came into town. Apparently, no one told Cotton about it and that kind of stuff didn't fly in Jersey. Cotton spun around and saw a man, a black man's, have you, face in front of him and swung at him. It was just a half second later he sees that this 'man' was dressed in a dress and carrying a parasol. He immediately helped him/her up and apologized while the rest of the team, and Coach Rupp, doubled over laughing. Sweets accepted the apologies, but then grabbed Cotton by the balls and said something along the lines of 'if you ever do that again, these are mine'. Quite a story.

Absolutely. It's just a damned shame they abandoned the chili industry and transitioned into a liberal think tank for commie pinkos.

I worked with Cotton's daughter at J Peterman. She corraborates this story.
Additionally, SweetEveningBreeze was also known to be on Rupp's staff. (No pun)
