Muhammad Ali

Muhammad Ali; with his larger than life persona, athletic ability, and accomplishments there are many photos of him that are considered iconic. Because of this there are many that slip through the cracks. This is one such gem; it shows Ali literally sitting on a million dollars in 1963. The best aspect of the photo is his facial expression.

Arsenal goalkeeper Jack Kelsey peers into the fog, searching for the elusive ball. The fog was so thick the game was eventually stopped

 This photo from 1954 of Arsenal goalkeeper Jack Kelsey looking into the fog for an elusive ball is not only shows the loneliness of the member of a soccer team who’s tasked with waiting at the net for action, but Kelsey’s dedication to the game.

Waiting in the fog for a ball that may never come doesn’t really sound like a lot of fun, but if it’s what you have to do to win the game you plant your feet in the ground and try to make sure you don’t get blindsided.

Thankfully this game was called because of the thick fog surrounding the pitch, but we’re wondering why even begin the game in the first place?
