Little bit of a Blaze Mystery Monday for ya guys. When we found out today was Garrison Hearst’s Birthday we went back into the Blaze Files to find this image of Garrison from a 1991 Georgia Bulldogs battle with the Auburn Tigers. Man, Garrison was tops in Tailback swag of the early ‘90s. But, we wondered. What’s up with that Black Heart Patch on his jersey? A proper blurry Youtube dive took us to November 16th, 1991 and a 37-27 Bulldogs win in Athens. Turns out most of the Georgia players were wearing the patch. We’ve got some FREE Blaze going to any fan out there who can tell us the meaning behind the Black Heart? b.t.w. I haven’t found the answer yet either.
