A decal paying tribute to the late Neil Armstrong was added this week to the helmets worn by Purdue Boilermakers football players. The stickers, which show a spacesuited astronaut in silhouette holding a Purdue flag, include the text “Neil Armstrong / 1930-2012.” The idea to pay tribute to Armstrong, a Purdue alum, was suggested by wide receiver Tommie Thomas after hearing head coach Danny Hope recount Armstrong’s exploits.
