Srutakirti das: Once in Calcutta we were driving back from somewhere and we went past this one park, and Prabhupada pointed to it and he said, “See that park? When I was a boy, I used to play football there.” Then he laughed and he said, “I was the goalie because they didn’t have to run around, and I didn’t like to run around so much so I became the goalie.” Calcutta was such an interesting place to be in because it was Prabhupada’s home through his childhood. He had such an amazing memory going way back.
