The Day Jets Flew Over Folsom Courtesy of Martin Connolly & Andrew Van Essen n November 15th of 1986 the CU football team prepared to face-off against their Big 8 Conference rivals, the 8-1 OOklahoma Sooners. Four (4) Colorado Air National Guard jet fighters added to the action just before the battle on the gridiron when they flew over Folsom Field in a special memorial exercise. The flight of four (4) A-7 Delta Corsair II jets honored the students, faculty, Ellison Onizuka Jack Swigert Donald Neary and alumni of the University of Colorado. The flyover also was in visible over the stadium at about 11:27 AM, just before kickoff. The memory of two deceased graduates, astronauts Ellison Onizuka, four (4) fighters, on their return from a training mission, flew over the killed in the explosion of the space shuttle Challenger earlier that field on their way back to Buckley Air National Guard Base in Aurora. year, and Jack Swigert, the Apollo astronaut & member of the C Club The jets made one pass over Folsom Field, from north to south, at an who died of cancer in 1982, a week before he would have become a altitude of about 1,500 feet. Because the jets returned from a training Colorado congressman. mission, the sponsors did not have to pay for the flyover.

In April 1984, a similar flyover raised a lot of eyebrows and caught many Boulder residents by surprise. The planes in that exercise, four (4) F-4 Phantom jets, buzzed the stadium as part of the annual ROTC parade at CU and sparked numerous telephone calls to the Boulder Police Department and CU. Unlike the 1984 flights, the 1986 flyover was approved by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), and officials at local airports and in the city of Boulder were notified, according to the CU Alumni Association.

The 1984 flights were so low, according to one observer, that residents of campus housing could “practically see into the cockpits.” City officials and others at local airports were not notified of that flight before the jets left Buckley. The minimum altitude for A-7 Delta Corsair II Jets flying over populated areas is 1,000 feet, according to the FAA. For months, it was unknown whether the 1984 flyover was illegal. But, in The jets swooped over in the so-called “missing man” formation, December 1984, the FAA granted a Freedom of Information request led by Colonel Donald Neary, a 1955 CU graduate & C Club member filed by the Daily Camera and said the Phantoms were indeed flying who was a Buff football teammate of Swigert. The flyover was at dangerously low levels, between 500 and 600 feet on some of the sponsored by the CU Alumni Association’s Boulder chapter and was more alarming passes, near the CU campus.

Before there was a ralphie... rior to 1934, CU athletic teams were referred to as Arapahoes, Big Horns, Frontiersmen, Grizzlies, Hornets, PSilver & Gold, Silver Helmets, and Yellow Jackets. The student newspaper decided to sponsor a national contest in the summer of 1934 to decide Colorado’s official nickname, with a $5 prize to go to the author of the winning selection. Over 1,000 entries arrived from almost every state. Athletic Director - Harry Carlson, Graduate Manager - Walter Franklin, and Kenneth Bundy of the Silver & Gold newspaper were the judges. Local articles first reported that Claude Bates of New Madrid, Missouri, and James Proffitt of Cincinnati, Ohio, were co-winners for the prize as both submitted “Buffaloes” as their entry. However, a few days later, the newspaper declared Boulder resident A.J. “Andy” Dickson the winner after a follow-up investigation revealed his submission of “Buffaloes” had Original Ralhpie Handlers: (L-R) Don Marturano, John McGill, Vic Reinking, & Bill Lowery. actually arrived several days before those of the original winners. September 16th, 1967, when Colorado played Baylor. Ever since then For the final football game of the 1934 season, a group of Ralphie has been leading the way as the Colorado football team takes the field. Ralphie I’s first bowl game was the Bluebonnet Bowl students paid $25 to rent a buffalo calf to stand on the sidelines. rd It took four (4) of them to keep the calf calm and on the sideline. on December 23 , 1967, where Colorado beat Miami (FL) 31-21.

The first named Ralphie to Houston, and help cover other costs associated with the buffalo was “Mr. Chips,” who appeared for the first time at the program. 1957 CU Days Kickoff Rally and was cared for by a men’s honorary society. In 1976, the President of The Bank of Boulder, Steve Bosley, proposed to Crowder they would do a fundraiser to send Ralphie to the Orange Bowl game against Ohio State. When a reporter asked Ralphie I / “Ralph” / 1966-78 Bosley how Ralphie would travel to Miami, he explained that the information was top secret since Colorado was concerned that n 1966 the Student Body Government decided that the Ohio State students would try to kidnap, or “buffalo-nap” Ralphie.

Ralphie I attended every Colorado home football game for 13 years, including all bowl games, and retired at the end of the 1978 season. The team matured too, selecting and training knowledgeable Handlers. The Handlers wore classic western attire while working with Ralphie, and initially would wear their cowboy boots when running with her. In 1978 the Handlers began to wear athletic shoes when running with Ralphie instead of cowboy boots, finding that it was easier to run faster and guide her while in athletic shoes.

Colorado’s first Ralphie achieved national celebrity status, and was even kidnapped in 1970 by some Air Force Academy cadets. Ralphie I’s final game was on November 18th, 1978 against Iowa State. She sadly passed away on May 13th, 1982, at 16 years of age.

What is buffalo. known for sure is that the original spelling of her name was “Ralph” but was changed to “Ralphie” at the end of the 1967 football season.
