STRANGE BUT TRUE: THE WEIRD HISTORY OF AMERICAN FOOTBALL: Leather Helmets, Muddy Fields, Bizarre Rules, Legendary Rivalries, Trick Plays, and the Wild Road to the Super Bowl - Couverture souple
Livre 59 sur 61: SparkTrail Strange But True
Synopsis
A championship played in a circus arena. A team created to advertise dogs. A television network that discovered football fans did not want to watch Heidi.
Welcome to American football, where even the history needs a referee.
Strange But True: The Weird History of American Football follows the game from its chaotic early days to the enormous spectacle it became. Along the way, you’ll meet stubborn rule makers, reluctant professional players, desperate coaches, and people whose brilliant plans lasted right up until kickoff.
Discover how a stolen cannon became tangled in the story of the first college game, why throwing the ball once seemed like a radical idea, and how one team managed to lose 222 to nothing. Step inside an indoor championship played where the circus had been, find out how basketball shoes helped win a football title, and meet the first NFL draft pick, who politely decided he had better things to do.
Then come the frozen fields, the controversial snowplow, the players running the wrong way, and the marching band that entered the field a little too early. Football has produced plenty of legendary moments. Some of them even happened according to plan.
Packed with strange stories and cheeky humor, this book makes football history entertaining whether you know every formation or mainly show up for the snacks. Two bonus chapters explore the peculiar rule book and the overlooked sideline jobs that keep the whole operation moving.
For football fans, curious history readers, and anyone who enjoys a true story that sounds like somebody made it up.
