Guide DEAN Morgan “occupied” the year 1919 with his encyclopedic knowledge of the facts and his down-to-earth presentation of the players & gamblers involved in that World Series. We loved DEAN and lived his tour.

Eric was great, nice and loud so everybody could here. He was also very accurate on his description of the entire White Sox team, and Cincinnati Reds team.

Our guide, Martin, is a great story-teller. We walked through the downtown area near the ballpark while he explained the details of the Black Sox/Cleveland world series and pointed out locations involved in planning the fix. The tour was very informative and entertaining. Had a great time.

The guide was great he knew the history of baseball in Cincinnati, however it just felt like a walk around the block. Was disappointed.

DanielB2982

Such a fun walking tour. Very timely as well as we did it on the very weekend where the Sox were playing the Reds. We even ran into one of the White Sox players on the street by the Hilton where they must have been staying.

Dean was extremely knowledgeable about the baseball scandal and presented the information in an interesting manner. I also liked him pointing out some of the great architectural buildings on our tour as well. We live in Cincinnati, but have learned so much about our city on all of the American Legacy Tours that we have taken.

This was my favorite tour. Our tour guide Eric was a great story teller and had information to share I had never known and I think I’m a pretty big baseball fan! His presentation painted a perfect picture and brought the story to life for me. Highly recommend.
