Ah, the Minneapolis Trib. As a young lad in North Dakota, I solicited subscriptions to the Sunday edition in order to earn a trip to the Twin Cities to watch the Lakers (George Mikan, Vern Mikkelsen, Jim Pollard, Whitey Skoog, and Slater "Dugie" Martin) play the St. Louis Hawks. What a thrill!!!
I look forward to your Whiz bang editions!
Me too!

Wow! What a connection. And the George Mikan era. First dominant "big man." With spectacles!
