Exciting news from CG Sports Publishing! 🎉
Good morning. We are speechless with excitement!
*Crickets chirp as the CG Sports Co. team dances*
Just kidding. We're rarely speechless. But we are excited! Here's why:
Brian Gushue, author of The Grass is Always Greener: One Football Fan's Improbable Quest to Attend 500 NFL Games, will be donating his wheelchair to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. This wheelchair is a prominent character in Gushue's book, helping him to attend countless NFL games. Prior to donating it, Gushue's wheelchair will be taking him to his 565th game.
The Grass is Always Greener intertwines Gushue's memories with football facts, commentary, and history. If you haven't read Gushue's book, it is an ode to the sport of football. Gushue (and his book) live as a reminder that seemingly improbable goals can be possible with determination and a lively spirit.
Congratulations, Brian!
