March 8, 1982: More than 1,000 people, including a throng of Paul W. “Bear” Bryant’s former players, paid $125 a plate at a black-tie dinner at the Sheraton Hotel in Washington, D.C. honoring the fabled coach. In a telephone call, President Ronald Reagan told Bryant: “The real contribution you have made are the differences you have made in the lives of so many young people.”

Alabama Crimson Tide Quote of the Day:

“If wanting to win is a fault, as some of my critics seem to insist, then I plead guilty. I like to win. I know no other way. It’s in my blood.”

Paul W. “Bear” Bryant
