Coming up next weekend. I know that I've done a post before in this thread about it, but thought one with more links would not be amiss.

OTL Wiki gives the rules for the actual game[/url]
Old Mission Beach Athletic Club, founders and still runners of the event[/url]
Pubclub guide to OTL
Sports Illustrated article from 1975
YouTube's many videos on OTL
Local TV channel's 70s-90s videos on OTL
Something to mention, the "Ms Emerson" (formerly Miss Emerson) contest is still around. Of course, the title comes from that old joke, one that Benny Hill might have come up with, about Them Are Some Big One.

Main San Diego Comic-Con International website; including a PDF format quick guide.

San Diego Union-Tribune page of Comic-Con Articles, including lots of articles, photos, and videos, including 'Where to Get Your Beer in San Diego.'

For those interested in ephemera, but do not look at the comic boot artwork thread, I've posted Selected pages from my copy of the 1970 program book

Does your city or one of those around you have such a festival? This is only the second one for San Diego. The Union-Tribune had a 28-page pullout section today on it.

San Diego had the lowest heart attack rate (1358 per 1 million people) in the state for the period from 2011-2016, it had lowered it substantially from what it was during 2007-2010 (1752 per 1 million).

But it also now has the third most expensive salary rate required to qualify for a loan in the state (at $130,986); at least it isn't near what the requirement is for San Jose (Silicon Valley, $274,623) or San Francisco ($213,276).

According to the FBI report issued for 2017 for the 10 largest cities in the USA, San Diego had the lowest crime rates for Violent Crime and Murders, and was 2nd to New York (!) for lowest Property Crime. San Diego's rates had dropped from those for 2016 for all 3 categories FBI

On another front, Small Breweries have been doing quite well in competition:
San Diego small breweries international competition results
San Diego Brewers Shine in International Competitions

Add on - the Miramar Airshow began today, in fact just now a couple of jets flew over my house (Miramar is about 10 miles north of me) as part of the show Airshow schedule

Back in 2015, the NatGeo channel put out an episode entitled Worlds Smart Cities: San Diego.
Now, they are doing a 4-part series on San Diego, starting this Thursday (18 Oct) at 7pm, and continuing for the next 3 Thursdays. First one is called "City of Adventure." The others will be "City of Discovery", "City of Creativity", and "'City of Diversity." The city's tourism authority has put up a hefty sum in advertising to get the word out. I curious to see how they come out, and what is emphasized (and what is left out, on the negative side.)
