On a chilly November morning, the two American colleges of Rutgers and New Jersey (later renamed to Princeton) faced off in what would later be known as the first official game of American Football ever to be played. The game took place in New Brunswick, New Jersey to an audience of about 100 spectators and ended with a Rutgers victory of 6-4. This was 1869. 100 years later and 61,946 fans would be in attendance to watch the Jets beat the Colts with 41 million more fans watching from home.

To compete. With this in mind, have a go yourself at seeing just how much N.F.L trivia you know. Will you miss the playoffs, or start a dynasty they’ll remember for years to come!
