Kobe was my oldest son favorite player. I was able to take him to see Kobe play his last game in Indy. Ayden is wearing a Kobe jersey to school today to honor his brothers favorite player. Sad day for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted February 9, 2021 Report Share Posted February 9, 2021 Saw this one pop up on the timeline this morning. Feb 9th, 1964. Beatles first time on TV in America. Ed Sullivan Show. 73 million people watched or roughly half the population. To put that number into perspective. We sit around 330M in US population today. Would be if 165M watched a show. Super Bowl just had 96M. What a time to be alive in the 60's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my Mom/Dad's first dates was Beatles at Indiana State Fair in the fall of 64. I'll say it again....what a time that was. Trust me I loved being raised in the 80's....but if I could go back to one other stretch it would be being a 13-15 year old entering the 60's.
