This week, Mr. Kyle Keiderling has begun accepting orders online for his new book " Trophies and Tears." Keiderling, a graduate of Rutgers, has done an excellent job captioning the history and nostalgia of Evansville Aces basketball while they called Roberts Stadium home from 1956 through 2011. He is accepting pre-orders through his website http://www.trophiesandtearsbook.com/.
The #1 reason why I want all supporters of Roberts Stadium to purchase and read this book is the fact that I don't want the legacy of Roberts Stadium and Aces basketball from that time period to fade away. The fact that Mr. Keiderling wrote this book is further proof of the enormous magnitude Roberts Stadium and the Aces have had on not just the Tri-State region but also the United States and the game of basketball as a whole. Evansville truly is losing its competitive advantage by demolishing Roberts Stadium.
I talked to Kyle yesterday via email and he told me that he will probably making several trips to Evansville for book signings so make sure you get yours early if you want to have a copy for him to sign. In case you forget, I will be placing a link on the right hand side of this blog that you will link to Kyle's Trophies and Tears website.
Roberts Stadium was there for us in 1977 when the Aces' plane crashed, Roberts Stadium was there for us when stars like Jerry Sloan defeated SIU with Walt Frazier which helped Jerry launch his legendary NBA career, and Roberts Stadium stood strong while critics like Jonathan Weinzapfel, Dave Rector, and Lloyd Winnecke tried to find any reason to demolish it (ultimately they had to just make one up). Now, it's time to be there for Roberts Stadium by keeping memories still alive.
Support Roberts Stadium by purchasing the book Trophies and Tears!
