Hello everyone. Looking for some help. My son Lee Kurfis was a wide receiver at Lehigh. (All American in 2013) :). As a sophomore he started his first game in the playoffs in the Fargo Dome. The bison crushed our Mountain hawks. His favorite picture of one of his catches is the one below and I wanted to get it blown up and framed for him for Christmas. However, this one is on his facebook and is not the original and can't be blown up without losing quality. The photo was taken by the Bison people, maybe an official game photo. Does anyone know how or who could help me get my hands on the original so that I have a chance to see if it can be enlarged?

Thanks everyone and Merry Christmas!!

I wanted to get a picture signed for my dad a couple years ago. Contact the NDSU athletics department and/or the fargo forum. They may have it somewhere.

I tried to go back in the multimedia archives and they don't go back far enough for me to look through. Here's a link to the people I'd contact at NDSU to try and see if they have access to those photos. You can also try contacting David Samson at The Forum at 701-277-1495.

I found another photo from that game where the credit attached was Dave Wallis who is on twitter @davewallisphoto. He is with The Forum.

I don't think it was a Forum photo. I looked into the photos from that game and it was not there. Was this back when Bisonguy was still taking photos at every game?

Have sent tweets out to those in the communications field @ NDSU.

Here's hoping....

It's not mine. The latter part of the 2010 season saw the birth of offspring #2, so I wasn't shooting football in 2011.


Looks like Bob Nelson, NDSU athletics photographer.

How big do you want it. I I was able to get it to 24x16 using black magic.

Wow, thanks everyone for your ideas and insight! I will follow up on each of them. GF Bison, I will take a 24X16 if you were able to make that happen! That is getting close to the size I was looking for which was close to a 36 X 24. Are you able to send it to me? How does that work?

Glad you guys were able to help out Mr. Kurfis!!

I came over here to congratulate the Bison on an incredible run! I'm glad I was able to be part of it if only for one game!

Thank you to everyone for helping us!! A Huge shout out to GF Bison and his black magic that shipped us two wonderful photos. Needless to say, Lee loved the gift!

Thanks again for making Christmas great again!
