EPISODE SUMMARY

The Dayton Triangles were an original NFL team when the league was founded as the American Professional Football Association in 1920. Triangle Park in Dayton, OH was the home of the "first-ever NFL game" between the Dayton Triangles and the Columbus Panhandles.

This week I brought Bruce Smith, a former resident of Dayton. He grew up near the park, the place where now you will see a historical marker with the words "SITE OF FIRST GAME IN THE NFL." I came across Bruce via Darrin Hayes over at the Pigskin Dispatch, one of the original podcasts of the Sports History Network.

Bruce grew fond of the story about the Dayton Triangles, so he ultimately decided to start a podcast with a jam-packed 20 episodes of information about the history of the team. You can learn more about the podcast and Bruce over here at his page.

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.
