The Story Of Rameses
Posted Jun 28, 2022
Eric Chilton remembers the day Rameses came to Carmichael Arena for the first time during a basketball game in the 1987-1988 season. A senior studying broadcast journalism at the time, he recalls a lot of the details, though none too vividly. As the man inside the Rameses costume, his only view was through a 6-inch hole in Rameses’ mouth.
