Good tour if you are interested in the scandal - Eric was a good guide, we were the only couple on the tour. He filled in some of the blanks of the incident. This tour is short, basically a few stops around 1 block

Super Informative and Entertaining Tour - I'm a baseball and history nut so I knew a lot of this, but the tour guide was very informative and filled in some blanks I didn't even know about. It was highly informative and very enjoyable despite the rain for most of it. That did contribute to it taking 2 hours vs the 1.5 listed, so plan accordingly. Highly recommend if you love the Reds or the White Sox or just baseball history in general.

Living History - Guide DEAN Morgan “occupied” the year 1919 with his encyclopedic knowledge of the facts and his down-to-earth presentation of the players & gamblers involved in that World Series. We loved DEAN and lived his tour.

Great Way to Spend a Morning Prior to a Cleveland Baseball Game - Our guide, Martin, is a great story-teller. We walked through the downtown area near the ballpark while he explained the details of the Black Sox/Cleveland world series and pointed out locations involved in planning the fix. The tour was very informative and entertaining. Had a great time.

Good tour - enjoyable and educational - I enjoyed hearing about the personalities who were involved in the gambling scandal before and during the 1919 World Series. Dean, our guide, was knowledgeable and put the story into the bigger context of this time period.
