CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice on Wednesday signed a bill establishing Nov. 14 as an annual memorial day for the worst sports disaster in U.S. history, a plane crash that killed most of Marshall University's football team.
Justice said he was a student at Marshall and was in his residence hall when the crash occurred.
"Really, really sad day," Justice said at an administration briefing. "We should never forget."
