Join Dan Dain, author of the book A History of Boston, as he leads you through a history of one of Boston’s greatest cultural assets: its sports teams. The discussion will go beyond just the big five (Patriots, Red Sox, Celtics, Bruins, and Revolution) and look at less popular spectator sports (lacrosse, rugby, roller derby), individual sports (candlepin bowling, tennis, golf), and women’s sports (Renegades, Pride/Fleet). The talk will dig deep into Boston sports trivia (did you know that the Philadelphia Phillies started in Worcester?) and sports stadiums and arenas (Braves Field, Huntington Avenue Grounds), and even look at the impact of Boston sports on popular culture (Tessie, Field of Dreams). This will be an interactive program, so come prepared for some deep Boston sports debates (was it really a mistake for Russell Wilson to pass on second down at the end of Super Bowl XLIX?).
Daniel Dain is the author of a new book called A History of Boston. By day, he is the president of the commercial real estate development law firm Dain Torpy in Boston. He also writes and lectures widely on land use law and urban planning.
