WWF Magazine- April/May 1987 Hulk Hogan @HulkHogan Andre the Giant @TheGiant46 📷Unknown- possibly Tom Buchanan/ Steve Taylor The cover photo of Hulk Hogan and Andre the Giant was the definitive visual for the "Battle of the Titans". It sold the myth of the "undefeated" 500-pound Giant against the "unbeatable" Champion, a storyline that drew a record-shattering 93,173 fans to the Pontiac Silverdome. The promotional shots from this era, including the one used for this cover, were designed to create an "aura of gigantism". This specific imagery of Hogan and Andre facing off became "permanently immortalized within the global collective unconscious," representing the ultimate triumph of a hero against an impossible obstacle.

On this day in history, March 30, 1981, Indiana basketball defeated the North Carolina Tar Heels 63-50 for the program's fourth out of five banners in the 43rd NCAA Men's Basketball Championship in Philadelphia. Coached by Bob Knight, sophomore guard Isiah Thomas won the tournament's Most Outstanding Player award after scoring a game-high 23 points plus five assists and two rebounds. I was LOVING since he stepped foot on Indiana's campus! My Detroit Pistons were having a horrible 1980-81 season and I was so hoping we would draft Isiah. Three months later when the Dallas Mavericks took Depaul's Mark Aquirre with the #1 pick my prayers were answered with the Pistons selecting Isiah #2.

The cover playfully contrasted his 5' 8" stature with an oversized bat to highlight his massive impact on the game. The magazine solidified Puckett as the face of baseball following the 1991 World Series.
Kirby Puckett had one of the best seasons of his Hall of Fame career in 1992, finishing as the runner-up for the American League MVP. He was second only to Oakland Athletics closer Dennis Eckersley in the voting.

Detroit Fights Back
The cover prominently displays the AMC Gremlin, American Motors' new subcompact car, which was officially introduced to the public on April 1, 1970.
The lead article explores the American auto industry's response to the rising popularity of small foreign imports from Europe and Japan.
The AMC Gremlin: Featured as the centerpiece of this issue, the Gremlin was designed to be a "dinosaur fighter" against the larger, more expensive cars of the era.
The AMC Gremlin was a major sales success for American Motors, especially considering the company’s limited resources compared to the "Big Three" automakers. Over its eight-year production run from 1970 to 1978, a total of 671,475 units were built.

The Ultimate "SI Jinx"
Disastrous Outcome: Despite the magazine's prediction that the Indians would win the American League, the team finished with a 61–101 record—the worst in all of Major League Baseball that year.
Legacy of Failure: This cover is often cited as the definitive evidence of the Sports Illustrated cover jinx, an urban legend suggesting that appearing on the cover leads to poor performance.
