I love Mount Rushmore questions. They always make for a good hypothetical (and sometimes heated) debate. You can apply it to anything really: Who’s on the Mount Rushmore of Country Music? Who’s on the Rushmore of Fast Food Chicken Nuggets? Who’s on the Mount Rushmore of Massachusetts pizza?? I don’t know why this turned into being about food. I guess I’m just really hungry for grease.
One of these debates that has been debated frivolously is: Who belongs on the Mount Rushmore of Boston Sports? PlayMA put that question to the test when they asked 600 Boston Sports fans for their opinion. PlayMA tallied the votes and these are the results. Let us know in the comments if you agree or if you’d switch anyone out.
I’ll give you the six that just missed the Boston Sports Mount Rushmore then the four that got the most votes. Speaking of votes, I’ll also let you know how many votes each player got. Now that we’re clear, let’s goooooooooo!!
