August 16th - Sports, Madonna, Taika and the King

 Growing up around my house with brothers and a dad who were very sports obsessed, we had a lot of Sports Illustrated issues around.  

The very first issue came out on August 16th, 1954.


A few years later, a certain queen of pop, Madonna was born (1958)


Then in 1975, Taika Waititi was born.


...and he's done some funny stuff I tell you.  Still have to finish watching Jo Jo Rabbit

Then in 1977 Elvis Presley was found dead.


Unless you're one of those who believes he's still alive... (he'd be 86).

All, during Rum Day.


Except for Taika, he was born in New Zealand and Rum Day is an American thing.
