Which President had turned down offers to play professional football?

The Green Bay Packers have a notoriously enthusiastic fan base and it shows in the lengthy wait time for a ticket. If you signed up for the season ticket waiting list today, you’d probably end up waiting close to 1,000 years to get a spot.

The New England Patriots were almost known as the BS Patriots, or Bay State Patriots. They started out as the Boston Patriots, but once they moved to their current home in Foxborough, the owner wanted a name more representative of the region. However, his name didn’t last long as the NFL wasn’t fond of the initials.

If you’ve ever wondered why the Pro Football Hall of Fame is in Canton, Ohio, it’s because of the Canton Bulldogs who did not lose for 25 straight games between 1921 and 1923. Jim Thorpe also played for the Bulldogs at that time.

Only one team has ever won three NFL championships in a row and it wasn’t during the Super Bowl era. That team was the Vince Lombardi-coached Green Bay Packers between 1966 and 1968.
