Title: Love Story
Post by: dbilmes on May 27, 2020, 01:40:23 PM
I don't know if anyone posted this story (https://www.wbur.org/onlyagame/2019/03/29/love-story-hockey-cleary-bertagna) when it first came out, but this is a fun story I heard on a podcast today about the filming of the hockey scenes. I never knew that Harvard coach Bill Cleary was the skating double for Ryan O'Neal, who apparently was as poor a skater as he was an actor!

Love means never having to learn to skate.

I heard it a few weeks ago.  But I believe it's a couple years old.

It originally aired March, 2019, but I wasn't listening to the podcast, It's Only a Game, when it first aired. That's why I put the disclaimer in my original post.
