Pizza
Hut Theatre:
For most visitors to the Museum, the Pizza Hut Theatre is their
first stop. The three-screen multi-media presentation is narrated
by ABC Sports and ESPN anchor Robin Roberts, a native Mississippian
from Pass Christian, MS. Entitled "It's How We Play the
Game", the 11 minute laser disc production has a values
oriented message, dwelling on overcoming the obstacles to success
rather than remembering specific moments from past sporting
events. Among those interviewed are Jerry Rice, Ray Guy, Bailey
Howell, Ralph Boston, Archie Manning and Willye B. White. |
