Jackie Jensen is one, not sure of the other.

[MVSNYC]

As an aside...who is the only athlete to play in both a World Series, and a Super Bowl?

That has to be Deion.

[MVSNYC]

Yessir.

The recent 30 for 30 on him was pretty good.

[Peter_Spaeth]

Jackie Robinson? He played football at UCLA I believe.

[Peter_Spaeth]

Yessir.

The recent 30 for 30 on him was pretty good.

He was pretty good himself. Absolutely suffocating DB and maybe the greatest returner ever.

Didn't know Jackie Jensen was one. I thought Jackie Robinson was one of the answers.

Ted I have no clue. Knowing you it's someone from the 50s Yankees, or maybe Dodgers, but being wrong on Jackie Robinson I have nothing left.

I recall that one were the answer was the team organist -
Who played in Mad square garden, Yankee stadium..polo grounds...etc..etc...

Gladys something ?

I always liked the question College FB All-American & MLB MVP's, so I'll go with one of those guys. Kirk Gibson?

I thought Gibson would be correct but they didn’t go his senior year due to being on probation. I don’t believe they went any of his other years either.

It was Chiuck Essegian

You guys are usually quick at getting the correct answer to these occasional quizzes; but, I think this one is somewhat of a "toughie".

HINT.…..the 2nd player to play in both the Rose Bowl and the World held the World Series record for the most Pinch-Hit HR's (2) for
quite a number of years until Bernie Carbo tied it in 1975.

Ramram is the rightful winner! I admittedly googled the crap out of this and will accept any bans/punishments for my transgressions. :(

Gooding. I think her big gig was Ebbets Field though?

[tedzan]

Rob M and Shain

Both of you can fight over the "Trivia Trophy" :)

As I see it, your correct answers were probably being typed simultaneously; therefore, I consider both of you the winners.
