Lot Description  

1929 Photograph of Roy "Wrong Way" Reigels as he shakes hands with captain John Utz from the University of Pennsylvania. Reigels has gone down in history for all the wrong reasons. Despite being an All American, it was his famous wrong way run in the Rose Bowl that lost the game for his team that he is most remembered for today. A rare image of one of the most infamous players in college football history.
