About The Museum of Sports

The Museum of Sports would be a permanent, interactive museum celebrating America’s greatest teams and athletes. It would be one of the world’s only museums celebrating all major sports.

 

The MoS would display world-class collections of priceless memorabilia, a high-tech array of digital and virtual reality activities for families and schools, plus a theater, sports restaurant, and shops for collectibles and memorabilia.
