37th Annual Eddie Glennon Gameboree



The 37th Annual Eddie Glennon Gameboree was held on Saturday, February 1, 2003 at the Marriott Century Center.

If you missed the 37th Annual Eddie Glennon Gameboree, you missed an opportunity to celebrate, once again, the 1991 "Worst to First" Championship Team. Notables in attendance this year were Hank Aaron and past pesident Jimmy Carter.
