Plimpton! The Great Quarterback Sneak

Post by JeffreyMiller »

I am looking for a copy of the 1971 documentary "Plimpton! The Great Quarterback Sneak," in which George Plimpton dons the togs of the Baltimore Colts. Does this exist on DVD, or can someone help me locate a copy for my collection?

I have never heard of it before now, but I was unable to find it on VHS or DVD.

Thought about Doak, but I don't want it bad enough to pay outrageous $$$

Wow, I remember watching it as a kid. I thought it was great, but I was about 10 yrs old. I have not seen or heard about that since.
