American Football
American football, also known as gridiron, is one of the most popular and beloved sports in the United States. History tells us that the sport evolved from other sports like soccer and rugby and that the first game was played on November 6th, 1869 between rival college teams, Princeton and Rutgers.
Fifty years later, in 1920, the Nation Football League (NFL), a group of professional teams was established, but under the name American Professional Football Association. Today it is arguably the most-watched sport in America.
