Miracle in Manhattan

Friday, April 12, 2024 - 5:30pm

Location: Prairie Star's Event Center at Meadowlark

You’re invited to “Miracle in Manhattan!” at 5:30 p.m. Friday, April 12, in the Event Center. Creator Dan Youngman wanted to illustrate where K-State football was once and display exactly how it climbed into the conversation of one of the greatest turnarounds in sports history.

So, Youngman made a documentary, "The Miracle in Manhattan — Part One — The Foundation."

The documentary begins in K-State's dark ages of football, highlighted by 30-straight winless efforts in the late 1980s, and walks through the first stages of the program's resurrection under head football coach Bill Snyder, who arrived in 1989.

After a year of putting a few thousand hours of work into it, Youngman is ready to display the finished product. All are invited.
