Tony Zendejas Retired

LAR @ SEA · Dec 22, 1991 · Season 1991, 17

Tony Zendejas went 3 for 3 on field goals in the Kingdome that day, capping a season where he went 17 for 17 - clean on field goals all year, with one missed extra point as the lone blemish. He accounted for every Rams point in the loss to Seattle, and he added a made doink to his trophy case to boot. In the stands was Jason Elam, then 21 and two years from his own NFL debut. Years later, in a 1998 Colorado Springs Gazette article, Elam remarked: "Zendejas kicked three field goals that day, and two of them hit the uprights and bounced through. That just proves you need a little luck sometimes." (Elam misremembered the count - only the second kick doinked.)
