Fifty years later, I remember exactly where I was sitting that night in the family room of our home in the Toledo suburbs. I can see my parents in the room, and my three siblings.
Had someone asked us then if people would remember that evening 50 years into the future, I think we would have thought, yes, that was possible. The Battle of the Sexes was that important to us and to everyone else we knew.
