Jim Marshall's Wrong Way Run in 1964

[Drybones195]

how was it a safety if he didn't get tackled in the endzone?

[job1785]

@Drybones195 When he ran in the endzone he threw the ball away that resulted in a safety.

[blackdog3377]

What a happy fellow he was

[justsomeguy2012]

Wow look at the blechers there almost empty. Did anyone watch the NFL back then

[MIKECNW]

@justsomeguy2012 I think the 49er's weren't all that great the first 30-35 years of their existance which may explain why.

[DannyAshcroft]

HAHAHA! #77 walks up and congratulates him. Stupid nigger ROFL.

[snave31]

#77 is my hero

[sgrigy94]

Thumbs up if Matt Carle sent you here with his own goal deflections yesterday!

[samisback321]

It's because of this play he's not in the hall of fame. That guy was talented

[SCE2AUX]

@samisback321 Actually, he is in the Hall of Fame...featured in this particular play.

49er: "Great run Jim, congratulations!"

Jim: "...uh oh."

[MIKECNW]

Amazing it hasn't happened since.

[AEMoreira81]

At least Jim Marshall redeemed himself---he caused a fumble later on that was returned for the game-winning score.

[anthonyvolturo]

@AEMoreira81 yea so really it didnt matter in the end. and considering the vikings still won makes it even more funny!

[theloserof08]

I swear to God, it's because of this play that Marshall isn't in the HoF. He was such a great player.

[sockomatic]

Lebron travelled

[CheddarBob39]

That has to be embarrassing. I would want to be in the locker room after that lol. But I can see how someone could make that mistake. In the heat of the moment he lost sense of which way he was facing.

[SubZ3ro3]

Be epic if he ran all the way to the 1 then turned around and ran all the way back the other way for a touchdown

[lakerskid2013]

@SubZ3ro3 Oh that would've been totally epic.

[jwm239]

@SubZ3ro3 ...yep...we area waiting for the NFL's first 199-yard return.

[caneut]

@SubZ3ro3 This isn't madden

[21ollej]

It's too bad that this is the only thing keeping Marshall out of the hall of fame :(

[job1785]

I can understand why Jim Marshall made that mistake because when he recovered the fumble he was facing his own end zone in the heat of the moment and usually a player is not use to turning around to go the other way.

[jordanking36]

lol he must of feelt like shit after this play

[samslick90]

Is Marshall related to Leon Lett?

[indyfan22k]

@JakeSwagger7 That's what makes it so funny.

[newgrubstreet]

The announcer was the great LON SIMMONS - - long-time 49er and Giant voice .. a san francisco icon.

[Airsoftdude1]

0:30 Marshall's like... "well, fuck me"

[anklepantsmagazine]

The funniest thing he's ever seen? That announcer must not get out much.

[KDubMoney24]

LMAO

[joelbroncos]

LOLLOLLOLLOLLOL!!!

[Josturr]

what a dumbass lmao

[originalmatchgame]

Talk about embarrassed
