It was in Mass at the Basketball Hall of fame.
Took a tour the day before and the guide ask if anyone would like to shoot a free throw. I stepped up and sunk the shot. Hadn’t touched a ball in over 20 years.
Then I told the guy that my mother took a class in college from James Naismith. It was a fencing class and Mr Naismith, who invented the game, was in his 90s. He called everyone that worked there and told them my story. What a memory that trip was.
