Game Ball From Game of the Century Comes Home.

Bob Apisa brought it back last week.

EAST LANSING -- Mark Dantonio was speaking at a luncheon Saturday afternoon three hours before kickoff of the Michigan game when he was surprised with a rare piece of Michigan State football history.

Bob Apisa, the All-American fullback at Michigan State in the 1960's, walked up to Dantonio at the luncheon and surprised him with a game ball he had kept from his playing days.

Who knows? Might be standard practice when the games start later in the day.

10 minutes with the big time donors at the Huntington Club suite.

They get off on that stuff and Coach D knows where his bread is buttered.
