Robert Landy "Fatty" Lawrence (May 6, 1903 – August, 1976)[1] was a college football player who went on to become the superintendent of Nashville’s Water and Sewerage Services Department from 1932 to 1971;[2][3][4] namesake of the Robert L. Lawrence, Jr., Filtration Plant. He was the father of William P. Lawrence.

Vanderbilt University

Lawrence was a prominent guard for Dan McGugin's Vanderbilt Commodores football team of Vanderbilt University from 1921 to 1924.[5] He was a part of three conference titles.

1922

In the second week of play of 1922 against Henderson-Brown, Vanderbilt won 33 to 0. Lawrence recovered a fumble in the end zone for Vanderbilt's fourth touchdown.[6] Lawrence also intercepted a pass in the scoreless tie with Michigan.[7] He was mentioned as one of the players of the game in the 14 to 6 victory over Tennessee. The Nashville Banner said Lawrence had been "in there doing a man's job blocking a kick and tackling with the deadliness of a tiger unleashed in a cave of lions."[8]

1924

He was selected All-Southern by his teammates.[9]
