Monday’s eclipse & The Fight of The Century
On Monday March 8, 1971, Joe Frazier fought Muhammad Ali in “The Fight of The Century”. It was an event that was so popular that The Citizen’s Commission to Investigate the FBI used it to break into an FBI office and steal every file.
On Monday, a solar eclipse will cross the United States, with the zone of totality crossing from Washington to South Carolina. With millions of Americans stopping what they’re doing to look up at the sun for a few minutes – not quite as long as a boxing match – who knows what people will do?
