Ray Delahanty (CityNerd) joins host Thomas Emerick to discuss Seattle vs. LA, Bo Jackson vs. Brian Bosworth, and how well certain sports venues fit their cities. We also delve into Seattle's long history of identity as a sort of a nice, passive city tucked away in the upper corner of the country that was always in the shadow of Los Angeles. The Seattle Seahawks and LA Raiders capture this on a Monday night in late 1987, and we unpack some of the related urban planning dynamics with those franchises over the years.
This is Remember That Game, the podcast about sporting events that take you on a journey and chart the path of the zeitgeist.
I'm your host Thomas Emerick, enjoy the show.
