Jamboree Jones
It's Super Bowl Sunday! I wonder if Jamboree Jones ever made it to the NFL?

Re: Jamboree Jones
Your question inspired me to refer to Gary Giddins' first volume and I learned that Bing showed some talent as a junior footballer at Gonzaga high. The Super Bowl was telecast in Australia, as usual and when Taylor Swift's boyfriend flew to Sydney before she started her concerts in the harbour city our media loved that.

Interesting. I knew Bing played baseball and basketball but wasn't sure about football.

Re: Jamboree Jones
What football position did Bing play? I played touch football with the boys but I always tackled them. I also played Spin the Bottle with the boys and got to kiss all of them! Lol!
