Whether your passion is football, tennis, ice hockey, or one of many other sports, this compilation lets you feel the sports experience rather than just observe it. More at home out of the VIP or press box, columnist Bob Latham brings you down among the fans and the athletes to experience the true essence of sports as he rants, riffs, and reflects on the heroism, heartbreak, excitement, and humor in the world of sports.From tips on how to become a professional sports team's number one fan to a recap of Muhammad Ali's seventieth birthday party, from the Super Bowl to Wimbledon to Wrigley Field, you'll feast on a tailgate party's worth of anecdotes. Along the way, learn valuable tips on how to be a sports tourist, whether you're headed to Scotland, Italy, New Zealand, New York City, or a host of other places.Join Bob as he makes a pilgrimage to sports meccas and legendary events around the world. See it all through his vibrant color photographs of the people and places you'll discover, from the cryogenics facility where Ted Williams is stored to the Jigger Inn overlooking the 18th hole at St. Andrews. Wrap up the experience as Bob recounts memories of his favorite Chicago Cubs fan, a tribute to those who love and live the great world of sports.
