Great Box Scores of History

Re: Great Box Scores of History

I would love to find the box score from the 1992 Thailand-South Korea hockey game that was 92-0.

I've gotta wonder - do you think in the middle of the 3rd, Bloomsburg's manager was thinking to himself, "Hey, this thing is off to a pretty good start!"?

Well no, they were still in South Carolina.

The US had 277 yards of offense in that game, but 267 yards of punt returns. Still seems like a small amt of yardage for 77 points. Turnovers don't explain it, either - the Koreans had three turnovers.

The USA scored six defensive/special teams touchdowns: a touchdown on a kickoff return, a blocked punt return for a touchdown, an interception return for a touchdown, a fumble return for a touchdown, and two punt returns for touchdowns.

One thing that confuses me: the USA scored a kickoff return touchdown at 11:51 of the first quarter. If SK didn't score any points then the only time they would've been kicking off was at the start of one of the halves. Do they play 12-minute quarters in international football?

Overall, this really looks like a video game box score, doesn't it?

I'm pretty sure we've all heard of this one, but I hadn't seen a boxscore before.

Slovakia 82 - Bulgaria 0

So remember:
1 goal, 1 assist, 1 fight = Gordie Howe hat trick
3 goals, 11 assists, 35 PIM = Anna Dzurnakova hat trick

Every Slovak forward had at least 3 goals and 9 points. Two Slovak defensewomen had hat tricks too, one of them with 8 goals. Bulgaria did not have a shot on goal.

Bulgaria's coach pulled the 1st string goalie after she gave up 77 goals. The backup gave up 5 goals on 5 shots in the last ~3 minutes of the game.

There's links to the other two parts on the youtube page. In the second or third video, Bulgaria actually puts a skater at goalie and gives up penalty shots for handling the puck in the crease rather than having the goalie get scored on again.

Moose Lake-Willow River beat Wrenshall 65-0 in December. While this wouldn't normally be too noteworthy, Moose Lake's coach says he played his JV squad for nearly the entire second half, after his team ran up a 40-0 lead.
 
Re: Great Box Scores of History

As for the box score I was trying to find, but cannot, on September 8, 1916 the Yankees and Philadelphia A's played in front of 23 people at Shibe Park.

And of course, there's always this dandy:
Cumberland-Georgia Tech
 
Re: Great Box Scores of History

This boxscore is probably the reason Major League Baseball now reports attendance using tickets sold (or some other made up number) rather than the actual turnstile count. The entire 3 game series drew fewer than 5000 people.

And for those who only remember the Yankees selling every ticket (until 2009 and the invention of the $2000 regular season tickets) there's this

In this game Wally Schang became the first player to switch-hit back to back homers in consecutive plate appearances.
