    Israeli basketball coach Ralf Klein died this week, aged 77. Which other major events in his life are related to number 77?

    Question #98420. Asked by gentlegiant17. (Aug 09 08 2:23 AM)

    Seems that twice the number 77 intersected in his professional career:

    Klein's finest moment as a coach came in 1977, when Maccabi for the first time won the European Cup, the forerunner of today's Euroleague, beating Mobilgirgi Varese 78-77 and causing club captain Tal Brodie to declare ecstatically in American-accented Hebrew, 'we're on the map and we're gonna stay on the map, not just in sport but in everything.'
