The Michigan Sports Hall of Fame in partnership with the Detroit Historical Society, presents a spirited, interactive exhibit featuring an exciting theme highlighting comebacks and championships by local sports teams. The exhibit, which runs through Sunday, April 3 in the Detroit Historical Museum's Community Gallery, highlights both team and individual triumphs throughout the years.
From the Detroit Red Wings amazing stretch as the best team in hockey following years of being the league doormat, to the Detroit Tigers remarkable comeback against the St. Louis Cardinals in 1968, this engaging presentation will evoke nostalgic memories for sports fans.
"The sights, sounds and excitement of this exhibit will offer visitors a unique reflection of our beloved Tigers, Lions, Pistons, Red Wings, Wolverines and Spartans through highlighted stories of comebacks with engaging videos and authentic displays," said Scott Lesher, MSHOF chairman.
Positive messages of teamwork, persistence, faith and other encouraging elements will invite visitors to take home a feeling of inspiration relevant to their lives - especially during our state's economic comeback journey.
This exciting new exhibit is presented by Comcast, with supporting sponsors Ford Motor Driving Skills, First Michigan Bank and Delta.
