Episode Synopsis "THE NIGHT KOBE CAME TO THE RUCKER"

When Kobe Bryant died in January, 2020, most of the memories centered around his Hall of Fame NBA career. But my mind went first to a  memorable night in New York City in 2002 that only a select few were on hand to witness. That's why Episode 1 of "Stories from the First 60 Years" is called "The Night Kobe Came To The Rucker."
