“The Arena” with Author Rafi Kohan

Inside the tailgating, ticket-scalping, mascot-racing, dubiously funded, and possibly haunted monuments of American sport

“For one year, I traveled the United States visiting sports stadiums — all manner of arenas, domes, ballparks — for the purpose of writing a book. The idea was to go beyond the ball games and architectural blueprints to explore the inner workings of these steel and concrete structures that hover over our towns, imposing their will on landscapes and skylines, to better understand our relationship to them — psychologically, economically, politically, culturally, historically — as individuals, as cities, and as a society.” -Rafi Kohan

Join Rafi Kohan for our intimate Clubhouse conversation on Thursday, November 9. RSVP required to attend.

Autographed and personalized copies of “The Arena” will be available for purchase. The author will sign only books purchased in the Clubhouse.

Rafi Kohan is a freelance writer and editor. Formerly, he served as deputy editor at the “New York Observer” and has written for “GQ,” “Men’s Journal,” “Wall Street Journal,” “Town & Country,” ESPN.com, and more. He lives in New York City and deeply misses the old Yankee Stadium.
