If you think yes, I have this to offer you.

Looking at the latest UFH I see Tony and Bob from IFI. (which just so happened to be the 49th UFH - interesting number )

Anyways, I instantly think Tony (I am told he is the one on the left in that picture - please forgive me if I am wrong, I have never met them) looks like a familiar face, so I Google a movie I have seen and come up with an actor's name.

Joe Mantegna is the person I was thinking of.

Now, I saw this as just another person who looks like a celebrity and a pretty cool way to remember what Tony looks like, until I reflect back to the clue.

"seeing Montana's green heights"

Most people think Montana = Joe Montana in that equation.

Joe Montana (sounds like) Joe Mantegna. Anyone catch that one yet?

I remember Joe Mantegna from a movie called Liberty Heights.
There is that word heights.

In that movie, Joe's character buys a Mist Green Cadillac.
There is that word green again.

One famous Liberty is of the Bell shaped variety.
Bell game pieces?

Oh yeah, and the UFH award to Tony and Bob was awarded 5 days before Kickoff.
There is the five from the clue as well!


Just some things to ponder.


4 more days.


Oh, and Tony, I hope you are a good sport about this, and take this as a compliment/joke/another FIRSTers crazy random thoughts in this anxious week leading up to the six weeks of craziness of another season, and nothing more.

Thanks!
Elgin, I have never seen any other FIRSTer so enthusiastic about solving the clue. You just proved how FIRST is a combination of the craziest people with the craziest ideas.
