* "The Bowden Dynasty: A Story of Faith, Family and Football": 6 p.m. at East Ridge 18 and Hamilton Place 8.
From the producers who created ESPN Films' "The Book of Manning," "The Bowden Dynasty" explores the life and career of Bobby Bowden, the coach whose assistants and players forged one of the greatest achievements in the history of sports.
From 1987 to 2000, the once laughable Florida State Seminoles thrilled fans with 14 consecutive seasons of 10 or more wins. Beginning with a come-from-behind victory in the 1988 Fiesta Bowl, Bowden's teams began a flirtation with perfection. In seven of those seasons, they lost only one game. More often than not, the quest for a perfect season came down to one play where mere inches or seconds determined the outcome.
This live broadcast from the world premiere in St. Petersburg, Fla., includes coverage of red-carpet arrivals and a special introduction from Bowden and his family. Following the documentary, there will be an exclusive Q&A with the coach and other special guests.
Run time is about two and a half hours.
