Yesterday was Fantastic Feat Day, a holiday observed by exactly one person.
To my mind, it has always seemed as if a lot of fantastic sports feats have occurred on September 30th. I've gone into some of them in previous posts, including the Greatest Fight of All Time, which occurred on September 30th, 1975 and which is commonly called the Thrilla in Manila.
On October 1st, for that reason, I like to do a roundup of the sports world and find out if anything interesting happened.
Unfortunately this year September 30th fell on a Tuesday after the end of the baseball season but before the start of the playoffs, so the pickings are slim. No boxing, no football, no baseball, no basketball. In fact there were very few sporting events of consequence at all yesterday.
So I guess this year was a bit of bust.
