Remember the View-Master? The plastic thing that looked like a giant pair of binoculars that you put a round photo slide in and could see a 3-D picture? Click the lever on the side and see another picture. Click, another picture. Click, another picture.

Mine was a Muppets View-Master. But Kermit never won the Heisman.

The Missouri Tigers are hoping it works out differently for Chase Daniel. This week, te university is sending out View-Masters to Heisman Trophy voters with photo slides of Daniel.

As far as creativity in the Heisman campaign goes, I’ll chalk up a victory for the Tigers.

Scott, I didn’t know you were old enough to remember the View-Master. Did your dad hand it down to you?

Haha, I came along right at the end of the View-Master’s popularity in the early ’80s. I didn’t use it much. I mostly preferred to throw the photo disks around like frisbees.
