Foot Ball games on Thanksgiving
It started about the late 1800's.
At that time they were only school teams playing.
Here is a story:
HOW I MET JOE NAMATH: Remember JOE?
I was living in Miami Beach, about 1968-70. I forgot
it's so long ago. There was this beautiful Irish setter
running in the street for two days. The dog had no collar.
I told my friend I am taking him home before he is run
over by a car. I lured him into my apartment with a lamb chop.
When my husband came home I showed him the dog. I had locked
the Setter in the bedroom. Now,my husband went for a bit of
rope and some dog food. He took the dog for a walk .
My friend came screaming
" DO YOU KNOW WHO'S DOG YOU HAVE KIDNAPPED "
A few minutes later JOE, that's right
BROADWAY JOE was at my door.
I explained he was going to get picked up by animal control.
He was very sweet and Thanked us. Plus gave my husband tickets.
A few weeks later he came to my door again.
Joe asked if I would like the dog. It seems his land lord was
asking him to move because of Pharaoh. That was the dogs name,
not Cassey nor Clancy, or Pat. Pharaoh, hummm, maybe Farrah??
