A boat skippered by rock star Bob Seger won its division in the 78th annual Port Huron-to-Mackinac Island Sailboat Race.
Seger’s boat, Lightning of St. Clair Shores, finished at 6:47 a.m. That gave it an adjusted time of 39 hours, 44 minutes, 27 seconds, first by 1:44:44 among the 15 boats in PHRF A/GL 50 class.
Say it is so
Fourteen-year-old Joe Wade Anders wore his baseball uniform–minus shoes–to unveil the life-size statue of Shoeless Joe Jackson on Sunday to a crowd of 500 people in Greenville, S.C.
Anders was selected because his grandfather, Joe Anders, was one of Shoeless Joe’s closest friends. The elder Anders, now 81, met Shoeless Joe when he was 15.
Say what?
