Joe Theisman interviewed about Kevin Ware’s injury
April 2, 2013
For those of you not old enough to remember what happened to Joe Theisman in 1985, you can watch a brief retrospective below. Theisman says that his leg breaking sounded like two “muffled gunshots.”
Having some distant relatives in Indianapolis who attend virtually all NCAA games, I can only imagine what this would have been like to witness firsthand. It will have to rank in history as one of the grisliest basketball injuries of all time. Of course, you guys in Louisville will no doubt be hearing much more regarding Ware’s recovery than the rest of us. Here’s hoping for the best, and I’ll be cheering for the Cardinals now.

This is the first time I’ve ever seen this from the angle that showed the leg actually breaking. I have to say, it made my head spin.
