Denver Snowball Defense

November 11, 1985
Mile High Stadium, Denver
Denver (17) over San Francisco (16)


A Bronco fan throws a snowball distracting Matt Cavanaugh, the Forty-Niner holder, for a 19-yard Ray Wershing field goal attempt, late in the second quarter. The hold is botched, Matt Cavanaugh throws an incomplete pass, and there is no kick. Officials allow the play to stand and Denver goes on to win by a single point.
