Sembach Tiger theft. Circa 1957, Sembach AB, Germany

In 1957 the AP's from Ramstein stole the stuffed tiger mascot from Sembach.
For several weeks a banner at the Ramstein gym asked "Where's the Tiger?" The night of the game with Sembach the banner read "Here's the Tiger" adorned with a picture of a jackass. The Ramstein APs presented the tiger to Col. Gideon before the game! As I recall, Ramstein won!
