Description

We are putting you in the shoes of the pioneers who created it. We are going to take you on a rip roaring ride through time and give you the options they had. We are going to explain the challenges they faced, the decisions they had to make, and most importantly we are going to find out if you would have done the same. Are you a risk taker; or do you like to play it safe? St Enoch's Square - Stop 1 - What were the circumstances that lead to it; and who was in charge of creating it? Kelvinbridge Underground - Stop 2 - Why was it held there and what were their options? West of Scotland Cricket Club - Stop 3 - What were all the things they had to put in place and what happened at the big match? Kinning Park - Stop 4 - Who was the major club involved in sorting out the structure to maintain it? Bridge Street - Stop 5 - Where was that structure created, who was involved and why was it so important? Alexander Watson Hutton's House - Stop 6 - Who were the other visionaries involved in creating the ingredients; which led to the creation of the ‘Greatest Show on Earth’ St Enoch - Stop 7 - In 3 hours time we will return here with your brain thoroughly melted. We are going full circle through through time following in the footsteps of Football’s Queen’s & Kings
