by Gregory Hickman Ph. D. (Author)
Jack Hampton, Jr., or "Little Jack" as his mother called him, was your typical big, stocky Midwestern 9-year-old boy from Strongsville, Ohio. However, when it came to sports, Little Jack was anything but typical. Where most boys played a sport or two, Little Jack played a lot of sports. Not because Little Jack wanted to play a lot of sports, but because his dad, Jack Hampton, Sr., insisted that Little Jack play all sports. When Little Jack was not playing hockey, football, baseball, basketball, lacrosse, golf, or even bowling, his dad, "Big Jack," insisted that Little Jack watch films of his opponents in order to learn about their strengths and weaknesses. Although Little Jack enjoyed sports, he developed a passion for designing sports stadiums and arenas. Join "Little Jack" Hampton on his sports-filled journey and see why he became "A Jack of All Trades."
