Better late than never ( afew conflicts this AM)

Back in the 1965 playoffs Red carried a medal throughout them insisting it was a lucky amulet. Who was the Saint featured on it? And who did he have to give it back to after the title?

St. christopher, Bob Cousy

willjr

half right

St. Christopher is correct but he had to give it back to someone else.

I won't be sad, cause 1 out of 2 ain't bad! . That is a great question, beat.

Was it either William Christopher (played Father Mulcahy on MASH) or was it THE POPE?

If no one has a clue as to whom Red had to return the medal too here is a hint.

He didn't have to go to OZ to do it, He could do it right at home!

Mrs. Walter Brown.

Everyone loved Walter. Red dedicated the 1965 championship to the venerable founder of the Cs, long before they won it, the master motivator at his most masterful. Win one for Walter.

Wrong home
Red supposidly got it from and gave it back to his own wife Dorothy after the finals.
NOTE: the hint OZ.......Dorothy connection
