I was able to dig up an old sports calender (most sports for 1980-1981 year) with Mustang Mania on it. I also found some Mustang club news letters and that was known as the Pony Express.
An interesting tidbit in my search down memory lane. On the back of the football media guide for 1979, it states that, "90% of the SMU undergraduate student body attended each Mustang home game in 1978." That was the last year to play in the Cotton Bowl during that era.
Also, the media guide advertised the Pony Express as Ford to Tolbert.

As I remember, many of those tickets were free. Still made for a great atmosphere at the old Cotton bowl

Wow that's awesome and a long way from where we are today,
but I predict that in the next few years Team June Jones will have
Ford Stadium filling up and becoming a great place to see some
exciting college football.

I can remember as a kid walking into the neighborhood 7-11 and they had a stack of SMU tickets for the taking. I think it was part of the MDA/Jerry Lewis bowl as Southland Corp was a big sponsor.
Isn't there an NCAA rule now against free tickets? or they can only be a certain percentage?

Don't forget that all this was in the middle of the "events" that started in 1974 with our first NCAA probation, followed by four more probations through the late seventies and early eighties, ending in the DEATH PENALTY about 1987. Do any of us want to see these days back that much?

Absolutely Mex. We were playing by the same rules as everyone else. Give give me the the first 6 years in the 80's anytime. The last 20 years have killed us in so many ways!
