Fun facts:

1.  Started to benefit Chicago charities.
2.  79,000+ people at the first game in 1934.  Finished in a scoreless tie...just like soccer, heh heh.
3.  It was played between the NFL champion and a college all star team.
4.  The games were actually competitive through the 1940s, and the collegiate all stars won consecutive games in 1946 and 1947
5.  The college all stars won just 4 of 29 games after that.
6.  The last game was actually called due to bad weather, late in the third quarter with the Pittsburgh Steelers ahead 24-7.
7.  The game MVP award was always given to a college player.  In 1957, John Brodie won the award.  That year, the collegians lost to the NY Giants, 22-12.
8.  The last MVP was newly-elected Hall of Famer, Ray Guy, in 1973.

Oh yeah?  I still like my memory best.  How many games did YOU listen to on a cheap Japanese transistor radio, huh?!  Besides, there's no sense screwing up a good story by telling the truth.
