EPISODE SUMMARY

In this episode, we fire up the DeLorean and head back to explore the life and career of Ralph Hay, The Founder of the NFL. He was an owner of an auto dealership and the Canton Bulldogs, a professional football team. Professional football in the Ohio region was at the brink of extinction, so Mr. Hay gathered together representatives from 11 different teams on September 17, 1920, to discuss the formation of a new league. The meeting would result in the formation of the American Professional Football Association, which would later become the NFL. So strap on your seat belt, and let's get ready to take this baby up to 88mph.

THE FOOTBALL HISTORY DUDE BACKGROUND

The Football History Dude is a show dedicated to teaching NFL fans about the rich history of the game we all know and love. I’m your host, Arnie Chapman, and I’m just a regular dude that loves football and is a nerd when it comes to learning about history. I created this show to share the gridiron knowledge nuggets I gain from researching various topics about the history of the National Football League. Each episode I welcome you to climb aboard my DeLorean to travel back in time to explore the yesteryear of the gridiron, and yes, that’s a reference to the Back to the Future Movies.
