Glory days. We all have them and Jack Gibson had one heck of one on Oct. 17.
Gibson was inducted to Brandon University Wall of Fame, Saturday in the banquet room at the Victoria Inn in Brandon.
Jack had the guests spellbound with his acceptance speech on family, friends, work and sports. You could hear a pin drop and that鈥檚 saying a lot when it鈥檚 the seventh of eight acceptance speeches.
Gibson was inducted for basketball (1970-1973) and builder media (1973-1988).
Also inducted was the football team (1969-1970), which included Loren Lagimodiere, Buzz Bradley and Mike Stinchcomb.
