Were you Clipping Coupons at that Age as well.
People in this country bitch about being broke, meanwhle they can put an extra 1,000-5,000 yearly in their pockets by using retail coupons(and can actually MAKE money if they use gambling coupons that are given out by various websites and the casinos themselves).
If I were close to being broke, I would really attack these offers...........as is, only do casually at this stage in my life, much less than posters such as you probably realize.
If I still lived in Vegas, without any real effort, gambling coupons are worth 5,000-10,000 a year in free money on average if one is a casino rat like me(which I know is rare).

I actually heard most of the game on an old floor model radio that would pick up games from around the east after dark. The raidio had a big circular dial that I would turn slowly until I could find a game. That night 47 years ago (I was 14) I just happened to pick up the New York Knicks radio station that broadcast the game at my home in Massachusetts. Viejo Dinosaur is right the game was played in Hershey PA that nite, a common practice the NBA used for years. True story.
Wilt Scores 100!

Chamberlain's record for most points scored in a game has stood for 38 years.
</CENTER>
</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>On March 2, 1962, Wilt Chamberlain set the NBA single game scoring record by tallying 100 points for the Philadelphia Warriors in a 169-147 victory over the New York Knicks.
Not 98 points, not 102, but a nice, round 100 -- an imposing record set by a most imposing player.
Chamberlain was a gargantuan force in the NBA, a player of Bunyanesque stature who seemed to overshadow all around him. He was a dominant offensive force, unstoppable on his way to the basket, yet he was also a fine all-around athlete who took pride in developing the all-around skills to compete with players a half-foot shorter.
He certainly was unstoppable that night in Hershey, Pa., where the Warriors played a few of their "home" games in order to attract additional fans. With New York's starting center, Phil Jordan, sidelined by the flu, Chamberlain could not be contained by Darrall Imhoff and Cleveland Buckner. He scored 23 points in the first quarter and had 41 by halftime, then tallied 28 in the third quarter, when the fans began to chant, "Give It To Wilt! Give It To Wilt!"
That's exactly what the Warriors did, feeding Chamberlain at every opportunity in the fourth quarter. The Knicks tried fouling other Philadelphia players to keep the ball away from Chamberlain, but the Warriors countered by committing fouls of their own to get the ball back.
Finally, Chamberlain took a pass from Joe Ruklick and hit a short shot with 46 seconds left to give him 100 points. Fans raced onto the court and play was halted as Chamberlain went to the lockerroom, where PR man Harvey Pollack scrawled "100" on a piece of paper and had Chamberlain hold it up for photographers.
In obliterating his previous NBA scoring record of 78 points set less than three months earlier, Chamberlain shot 36-for-63 from the field and 28-for-32 from
the foul line, a remarkable feat for a man whose career free throw percentage was a weak .511.
"As time goes by," Chamberlain reflected more than three decades later, "I feel more and more a part of that 100-point game. It has become my handle, and I've come to realize just what I did." Chamberlain went on to average an NBA-record 50.4 ppg in the 1961-62 season and became the only player to surpass 4,000 points in one season with 4,029. He also led the league in rebounding with 25.7 rpg and was second in field goal percentage at .506. Amazingly, Chamberlain also averaged 48.5 minutes per game-quite a feat when you consider that an NBA game lasts only 48 minutes. The Warriors played a total of 10 overtime periods in seven games that season, and Chamberlain was on the court for 3,882 of a possible 3,890 minutes. Of the team's 80 games, he went the distance in a record 79 of them.
