Krazy George - 1998

This is Krazy George Henderson, professional cheerleader since 1975. He invented the stadium wave. He was the Houston/Tennessee Oilers official cheerleader for 8 seasons. I interviewed him and took these photos in 1998. Check out his fresh Tennessee Oilers #0 Throwback (it was current then).

The Tennessee Oiler's first season in Nashville was 1998. At that time I was Editor of a Nashville magazine titled Blast. Then Tennessee Oilers played home games at Vanderbilt Stadium. The games then were lacking in atmosphere except for Krazy George. I had seen him on TV before, but just quick cuts in and out of commercials. But after seeing him perform live and getting the crowds chanting, cheering and doing the wave, I had to get an interview for Blast! Magazine. The Titans hired him for a couple of games in 1999 (Super Bowl Year), but that was the last they used him. His stay was short but sweet. OFFICIAL WEBSITE.
