Sports Reference Blog
Random Page Search Added to Sports Reference Sites
Posted by Mike Lynch on May 9, 2017
We have rolled out an update to our search function on Baseball Reference, Basketball Reference, Pro Football Reference and Hockey Reference. If you type "random" or "zz" into our search forms on those sites, you will be taken to a random page. We have also added a random page tool to the frivolities menus on those four sites (Baseball, Basketball, Football, Hockey).
If you'd like to save shortcuts to random pages for any of these four sites, please use these URLs:
Baseball Reference Random Page: http://www.baseball-reference.com/rand.fcgi
Basketball Reference Random Page: http://www.basketball-reference.com/friv/random.cgi
Pro Football Reference Random Page: http://www.pro-football-reference.com/friv/random.cgi
Hockey Reference Random Page: http://www.hockey-reference.com/rand.fcgi
Wow -- you guys snuck this in there when we weren't looking. Elegant solution -- well done. You should consider some way to draw attention to new blog posts that pertain to new or revised features...
