"Spare Tire" Dixon, played by the late Bubba Smith, is a man who believes - like Al - that he was destined for greatness as a high school football player. The difference is that "Spare Tire" blames Al for that dream not coming true. The two engaged in (at least, as they themselves recall) a titanic goal-line struggle, with Al just managing to smuggle the ball over the line for a touchdown. "Spare Tire", however, argues that Al's knee was down before the ball crossed; ergo, the touchdown should not have counted. In "All Night Security Dude", the two now middle-aged men re-enact their clash (exhausting themselves in the process); "Spare Tire" finally accepts that Al indeed made his touchdown.
