My dad just mentioned an opera singer who sang at the Vic at half time at some game.

I can't remember her at all, is he going mad?

I have a feeling she was a good looking lass and got a chorus of 'get your tits out for the lads' when she finished

The escape artist hanging upside down from a crane in the Corner Flag area really happened too.

I remember it well, she sang before the game in a Pools top it was the 0-0 against a caretaked manager by Martin Gray Darlo who parked the bus we must have had 80% possession. This was her;

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keedie_Babb

I found her on Google as I remembered she had done the England Ashes song for the amazing 2005 series. I can't believe her Wikipedia entry doesn't mention her appearance at the Vic which was surely one of the highlights of her career?

True story, opera at the Vic!
