Default Re: Pick the five sporting events you wish you had seen in person

2. 1950 world cup, a lot of the team grew up in the same neighborhood as I did, my grandpa was friends with a lot of them

I was going to mention that most players were from St. Louis because the coach was from there and familiar with them. Interesting, about your grandfather.

Have you read The Game of Their Lives? I would highly recommend it specifically for you given the grandfather thing and also that they talk about how their neighborhoods were. For someone from there who knows more about how they are now I think it would be more interesting.
