From the global spectacle of the FIFA World Cup to the crack of the bat at the MLB All-Star Game, the prestige of the PGA Championship, the electric energy of the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament, and the once-in-a-generation celebration of America's 250th birthday, these are the kinds of moments people will be talking about for decades — and Saint Joseph's University students have a front-row seat to make it happen.
