Educating the public about the game and hobby of electric football and its history is the main purpose of The National ELECTRIC FOOTBALL Game Museum. Today I had the opportunity to showcase an electric football display at the public library in the town I grew up in, Lawrenceburg, TN. It will remain set up through the month of September. Although not quite as extensive as the "Art of the Buzz" exhibit I did in January and February. It still serves the purpose. Also made a donation of the books, "The Unforgettable Buzz", "Full Color Electric Football' and " The Electric Football Wishbook" so that people can check them out and learn more about the rich history of electric football.

The librians were very excited about it.

Two of the teams are of the local high school. A 1963 team because my second cousin played on that team and the 2013 team that I have used to play in leagues amd tournaments. 

The LEGO Stadium was built by a former contestant on LEGO Masters. 

My custom figures include former UT Vols Reggie White and Peyton.

This is in my hometown and where I graduted high school from. So yes, hopefully some local interest.

From my experience as a librarian I imagine a traveling display would be popular at most public libraries across the U.S. It seems Chris has already developed the format.

So, for Cody, Wy  a custom painted High School Bronc Team. A state championship team if possible. Then a few University of Wyoming players like Josh Allen and Jay Novacek.

Twelve libraries a year and in four years the display could return home larger and more representative of high school teams. SEE post:

Shipping and insurance might be cost prohibitive, but it's fun to think about.

Enjoy the Journey.  T43   ⚡🏈♾️
