I Was There!: Joe Buck, Bob Costas, Jim Nantz, and Others Relive the Most Exciting Sporting Events of Their Lives

by Eric Mirlis, Marv Albert (Foreword)

Take a trip through sports history through the eyes of those covering the biggest events of all time. In I Was There! seventy of the biggest names in sports broadcasting and journalism share their personal experiences at the top five sports moments they each saw in person. From cultural phenomena like the Super Bowl, World Series, and Olympics to less-well-known sports and games, the people who brought you these moments on television and radio or wrote the stories you read in the newspaper or online give you a firsthand look at what made these events so special. Join such legends of the business as Marv Albert, Joe Buck, Bob Costas, Jim Nantz, Bob Ryan, and Dick Stockton as they tell their stories from these indelible moments and explain why their five moments stand above all of the others they have seen, and find out why each of them is proud to say "I was there!"

[Ryan Decker · Rating 5 out of 5]

Very entertaining book to read. Tons of great stories, and personal view points of all of these historical games and sporting events.
Definitely wish/hope there is a 2nd edition at some point in the future containing stories from more journalists and more-recent moments
