The City of Brotherly Love was, for a time, also known as “The City of Champions,” due to a bunching of championships by its professional baseball, basketball and football teams. But that was in the years just following Rocky’s first climb up the Art Museum steps, back in the late 1970s. Well, Philadelphians waited a long time to celebrate another major-sport crown, but the wait is over. Now, Lindy’s Sports lets the Phillies’ faithful and all baseball fans re-live this thrilling season. The World Series special issue is full of information about this unforgettable year and the Phillies’ proud history. If you have a soft spot for the big, furry, green “Phanatic” … scootering around Citizens Bank Park … don’t miss it!
