Forbes recognizes Home of Champions - JJJ - 12-12-2017

As per All Write Now today:

It's not about the hardware, and I'm good with that.

Quote:"They're not about the trophies at all," said Drew Bryant, a design principal at Advent. "The story is the hard work to get to that moment. Learning that changed the entire setup of the space away from just lining the room with all the trophies."

"You see the faces of the athletes, not the trophies," added John Downie, vice president of digital experiences at Advent. "It's the story of the athletes themselves."

Stopped in before the WBB game today. The digital athletes table is cool (found a former roommate who ran track). I enjoyed revisiting the many inspiring accomplishments, both recent and not so (ahem, when I was in school). The space is very sleek, almost sterile, and (perhaps because there were only four other visitors) cavernous. I could see how it be a great venue for events but I expected something more intimate, with more stories told (think Bob Murphy transcribed) and objects displayed, even a little trivia — maybe some of those touches will be added over time?  I guess I’d prefer it to be more like Cooperstown...
