On the Steelers' initial possession of the final period, Bradshaw lofted a 73-yard scoring pass to John Stallworth to put the Steelers in front to stay, 24-19. Franco Harris scored on a 1-yard run later in the quarter to seal the verdict. A 45-yard pass from Bradshaw to Stallworth was the key play in the drive.

Second best day @ the Track...in my life
That was a great race. Nothing beats the Derby for atmosphere, build up, beautiful women and 2 solids minutes of pure excitement. I attended ever Derby from 78' till 89'. The most amazing in my eyes was the Spend a Buck win in 85'. Fastest time since Secretariat. I was in a box on the finish line that year and I still remember him coming down the stretch with all that power and beauty. Awesome live event. A live game 7 in a Stanley cup finals is not far behind. Best live event to attend ever. And I've been at most like VD.
