Philadelphia's Penn Relays track meet is one of the world's oldest, most respected, and most attended track and field events. They're happening this weekend, and they include everyone from the city's young athletes to the world's best sprinters. We got to attend it in 2022 and see not only how intertwined it is into the culture of the City of Brotherly Love, but just how much the island nation of Jamaica treasures the event - and infiltrates it with tens of thousands of fans bringing energy, passion and fun. - Спорт
One love to you, family and friends from Jamaica 🇯🇲 ❤ 🇯🇲
Thank you, Grace!!!
One love!
I really enjoy your intro , have nice day my friend
I love old historic buildings/stadiums. We don't have much of that in LA. Amazing how many Jamaicans were there! You should have chased down the Jamaican PM and interviewed him too! haha. Such a big event, I am thinking we need to find one on the west coast to get a little taste of it before the 2028 Olympics. You guys should definetly come see it! I remember the 1984 games a little, and it was really cool!
Olympics are bucket list. An all-time favorite…as you will see. 😉
Great video, guys!
I would have loved it anyway, but (as always) you guys nailed making a GREAT video, too... Thanks for a much-needed morning smile! ...and FIGHT ON PENN!
You were the FIRST person we thought of with this vid. That day was SPECIAL. Next: A Penn football game! Let us know when you're here!
🇯🇲 We eat and drink athletic in Jamaica 🇯🇲 so no one should surprise when we perform good in the world in the bigger events 🇯🇲
Never a surprise! We were only surprised - happily surprised - at how much your fans travel! It’s like the Green Bay Packers in the NFL, or the Dutch in speed skating.
I really enjoy your intro. Track was main sport going to high school but got distracted by volleyball. Looks like you have some backlog to go through. 100 years old is pretty impressive!
Just love all your sports history! Jamaica does not mess around! It is the same for Connor McGregor for the Irish. Really cool you got an interview. Don’t let the prime minister push you like that. What an amazing sub culture.
Yeah, don’t mess with prime ministerial bodyguards.
great weather for a track meet! awesome track - of course, you found the cheese! :) yep - Grandpa's like track meets too - imagine that sonny boy! :) That much action going on at once would give me a head ache - but u know - I'm just a grandpa :)
So do gray-haired guys a decade or so away from becoming grandpas!
Oh nice!!! I’m a track and field guy so you know I loved this one. The Penn and Drake Relays are the big ones! Everyone loves chicken tenders! Anthony didn’t look convinced to start running track though 😂
And some Buckeye action!!!
Lol! Part of me wonders why they always schedule Penn & Drake on the same weekend. Makes no sense.
The head of state for Jamaica is actually King Charles III
Apologies for that! Thanks for the correction.
