Game Over
One mid-summer day in June, there were a lot of monumental sporting events happening all over the nation. A major golf tournament, a victory parade, World Cup opening ceremonies, an NBA basketball game, and more. THEY were the headlines ALL DAY until suddenly...they weren't.
This episode of Top Fold explores that day and what took them so dramatically out of the headlines.
Top Fold is dedicated to, "All the news that would have been". What does that mean? That means that on the day JFK was assassinated, the Hindenburg exploded, or Elvis Presley died other news events were on peoples’ minds, in the headlines and on the evening news, but after this event, headlines were replaced and stories fell below the fold.
What event happened that was huge but wasn’t talked about because something else monumental took the headlines or top story? The name of the podcast comes from a combination of "TOP Story" and "Above the FOLD" - TOP FOLD.
Original music by David "Beezer" Wagler
