Slim Lybrand the Loboes' most outspoken 1947 fan
Slim Lybrand was a fervent Loboes supporter at Lobo Park during the 1947 season. When Amarillo Gold Sox led 27 to 3 in the fifth, a plan to call the game after seven innings drew Lybrand’s ire as a devoted, vocal spectator. He remained a memorable, passionate presence at the ballpark.
