Richard SimonOpen less than a year, the Sports Museum of America is closing today.
There was plenty of pre-opening hype, but the Sports Museum of America never quite caught on with tourists or locals in New York. At least not enough of them apparently came through to keep the place open.
The Museum is closing today "until further notice" according to an outgoing message on the answering machine.
Located on Broadway, the Museum was home to the Heisman Trophy award presentation. The Museum had dropped its admission prices from $27 to as low as $10 in recent weeks, but according to reports in the city, the sports memorabilia inside will be very lonely starting this weekend.
