In the month of October, TPT is your destination for sports. All month long we’ll be showcasing groundbreaking documentaries that highlight national and local sports legends. From Jackie Robinson to the 1960 Minnesota Gophers — there’s a sports highlight reel on the schedule for everyone.


Becoming Big League explores how sport was changing in 1960 and how that changed Minnesota. From Olympic hockey to High School hoops, from pro-sports origins to Big Ten titles, Becoming Big League is a retro sports page come to life that illustrates how 1960 might be the most dynamic year in Minnesota Sports history. A Twin Cities PBS Original production.
