The Calgary 88’s were a minor league hoops team that competed in all five seasons of the short-lived World Basketball League (1988-1992). The WBL was restricted to player 6′ 5″ and under and featured an odd geographic mix of teams scattered from southern Florida to Western Canada. The team derived its name from the 1988 Winter Olympic games that took place in Calgary.
The Santa Barbara Condors were a financially bereft 2nd division American soccer club that folded after playing just a dozen games in the summer of 1977. During their brief run, the Condors played home games at Valley Stadium, a high school field in Goleta, California.
