Did you ever want to runaway? To chase your dreams? Edgar Welden did - he spent an entire year attending sporting events all over the USA. From New Hampshire to Hawaii - Florida to Alaska, Welden attended 250 different sporting events, 35 different kinds of sports, and traveled over 120,000 miles. Welden saw the blockbusters - the World Series, the Superbowl, the Final Four, The Masters, but he also saw the less publicized events - the X Games, the Triathalon, the Iditarod and the Nine ball pool championship. It was a wonderful year and after it was over, Welden realized it was more than just the sports - it was the great characters he met and places he visited along the way. This is a fun and witty book. Welden had fun and the reader will have fun too!
