There was once talk of making a movie about Corso's friendship with Al Carpenter (the gentleman on the "scooter" on the field back in the day)...Burt wanted to play Lee...

It's a neat story...and I remember some of the details...but not all of them.

Essentially Carpenter is making his way to a game and Corso gives him a ride. They become friends and Carpenter is a fixture at the games.

There's more to it...I just don't remember.
 
Corso and Reynolds were teammates and roommates at FSU in the late '50s. Just read that they continued to talk monthly, including as recently as a couple of weeks ago about expectations for the 'Noles season.
