Guy who kept Arkansas out of the 1979 Final Four running for the Indiana House

Here's your obscure fact of the day. Indiana State's Bob Heaton, whose left handed basket at the buzzer kept Arkansas from a repeat Final Four appearance in 1979, is running for office. That win kept Indiana State, Heaton and Larry Bird undefeated at 32-0 en route to a runner-up NCAA finish.

Heaton is running for Indiana House District 46. Here's the Terre Haute Tribune Star article. His campaign slogan? “It’s time for another miracle!” Let's throw a fundraiser for his opponent.
