In the thrilling Whippet Race Start, these agile dogs burst forth with lightning speed, igniting excitement in every spectator's heart. Bessie Bonehill, a trailblazing male impersonator from 1855-1902, fearlessly started a revolution in the music hall industry by challenging societal norms. The historic F. A. Cup Final at Wembley Stadium in 1923 marked the start of an era where football became more than just a game; it united nations and ignited passion like never before.
