World Sports Humanitarian Hall of Fame

Description:

• Located in historic Eighth Street Marketplace, this six-year-old museum recognizes athletes whose achievements have helped humanity. Housed in a temporary building, the hall inducts three athletes each year during December's Humanitarian Bowl. Past inductees have included Tom Landry, Tony Gwynn and Wilma Rudolph. Museum visitors can stroll past photographs of sports heroes and heroines. Fundraising is underway for a new 30,000 square-foot building east of Boise.
