As far as the man in the food truck is concerned, the patch of land he occupies in Sheffield, England, is about as humdrum as they come.
To him, the spot — in the drab parking lot of a sprawling home improvement superstore, its facade plastered in lurid orange — is not exactly a place where history comes alive.
John Wilson, an academic at the University of Sheffield’s management school, looks at the same site and can barely contain his excitement.
He does not see a parking lot.
He can see the history: the verdant grass, the sweating players, the cheering crowds.
