Description
The Texas Christian University (T. C. U.) Horned Frogs are hosting a basketball game against the rival Baylor Bears. The action shot shows guard Guy Holt, number 30 with the Frogs, receiving a pass from his teammates. The angle of the camera and the timing of the picture makes it look as if the basketball is replacing Holt's head. This incident led to the nickname, Mr. Basketball.
