Not sure - what was it, @M52?

Soccer? Hockey?

Hi @M52 Can you confirm if you're asking whether the members of Lynyrd Skynyrd played any sports?

If so, I found out that Ronnie Van Zant played American Legion baseball and was a talented player, even considering a career in professional baseball before his music career took off.

And the original members, including Ronnie Van Zant, Gary Rossington, and Bob Burns, met while playing on rival baseball teams in Jacksonville, Florida.

That's super interesting, @HunterPandora! Very cool that they could have been baseball players.
