Last Friday, I made a trip to Birmingham, AL and the Alabama Sports Hall of Fame. Several months ago, I created this WFL 50th Anniversary World Bowl Game Set. DSC04813.thumb.JPG.cd98c349249d607ae6cc1cea799325db.JPG

I have always been a big fan of the 1974-75 World Football League and have painted the teams from this league many times. I did create this game set with the idea and purpose of hopefully getting it displayed in the Alabama Sports Hall of Fame since they have the World Bowl Trophy on display there.

I contacted Scott Myers, the Executive Director, and asked if he would be interested in having this game set as a donation to the ASHOF Museum. Surprisingly, he was interested in having it. So, I made the trip down to deliver it. 

The Alabama Sports Hall of Fame is an Awesome Museum!!! Here are just a few of the pics from my visit. There is much more to see, and I will definitely be making a return trip soon.

Many thanks to Scott Myers and the ASHOF for helping me to fulfill part of the mission of the NEFGM and bring more public awareness to this great game and hobby.
