The second book in this Scenic Side Trips series is A Sports Fan’s Guide to Route 66, written by Ron Clements. Ron Clements is a Wisconsin native and Green Bay Packers fan who married a Chicago Bears fan from Peoria, Illinois. Despite the rivalry, Ron and Patti make it work and have been living fulltime in an RV since March 2018. They travel the country in search of new adventures and love attending baseball games and national parks. They visited all 30 MLB stadiums in 2018 and have taken their RV to each of the Lower 48 states. The Sports Fan’s Guide to Route 66 is for anyone who has ever driven past a high school, college, or professional stadium, and thought, “I wonder what it’s like to see a game there.” Ron’s book not only takes you to various sporting events and explains what the atmosphere is like at those venues, but is loaded with interviews. You’ll hear from the Chicago Blackhawks team historian, the track president at Chicagoland Speedway, various coaches and athletics directors at the high school and college levels, media members connected with cities and teams, as well as pro athletes like LeBron James and Anthony Davis. A Sports Fan’s Guide to Route 66 will be in bookstores and online on August 3, 2021.
