Fans who assembled at Jesuit High School's football field in Tampa, Fla., on Oct. 23rd to watch an open tryout for the Tampa Bay Bandits of the United States Football League were surprised.
Among the candidates was a soccer-style place-kicker who bore a surprising resemblance to Garo Yepremian, the former star in the National Football League.
Yepremian, who began his career with the Detroit Lions in 1966 and starred with the Miami Dolphins from 1970 to 1978, last played in the N.F.L. with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers early in the 1981 season.
