Kings Park

Supporters heading for Hampden after the simultaneous arrival of two football specials at Kings Park on Cup Final day 1963. Rangers and Celtic were meeting in the final for the first time since the war, attracting a massive crowd of 129,643. The game ended in a draw and the replay eleven days later was also watched by a crowd of more than 120,000. No nonsense about penalty shoot-outs!
