Sept. 23, 1957: Robinson vs Basilio was the first match between them.

The great Sugar Ray Robinson had retired from boxing, had been singing and tap-dancing for three years. He didn’t have much success, so he came back to the ring in 1955.

Good thing Ty Cobb didn't get to drive around the park more often or he probably would have run someone over. Allegedly he had a pretty big temper.

Listen to the latest episode to hear more about it and the ugliest moment in baseball.

Ty Cobb was known for his temper on and off the field. One of the greatest baseball players ever to play the game and he was involved in one of the ugliest moments in baseball ever! Ty Cobb Monster or Man?

As mentioned on our latest episode about Wes Craven here are some photos from the Nightmare On Elm Street house in Potsdam NY.

Even though it was never confirmed it was the inspiration behind the movie we all think it had something to do with it.

What do you think?

[yoretown @yoretown]

Check out the latest episode of our show! Wes Craven was the person we speak about in this episode. Some pretty interesting information we dug up!

The Oneida Community was all about the "free-love utopia" that tried to chase immortality.

It was a WILD concept that if it wasn't for this community, we wouldn't have the Oneida Silverware Company.
