Lennie Rosenbluth Remembers

Posted May 10, 2012
When Lennie Rosenbluth first came to North Carolina in 1953, he couldn’t give away the complimentary basketball tickets he received — his friends would go to the movies instead. “The crowds were maybe 2,000 people, half what Woolen Gym would hold,” Rosenbluth said Wednesday. “But by 1957 you couldn’t get a ticket — that’s how popular it was.” (Durham Herald-Sun)
