BIRTH OF A SPORT
BIRTH OF A SPORT
The Lot reflects the changing culture and attitudes towards sport in America through the prism of the fanciful flight of the frisbee as told by the pioneers who founded a new worldwide sport 55 years ago.
Popularized during the countercultural late 1960s, frisbee is a humorous, fair and inclusive activity. But in 2023 ultimate frisbee is a competitive team sport on the precipice of the mainstream. Our journey begins where a game became a sport: A small, oddly-shaped and partially hidden parking lot in Maplewood, NJ.
