Canton, Ohio...'On August 20, 1920, representatives of four professional clubs held the first of two meetings in Canton, Ohio, which led to the founding of the American Professional Football Association. Two years later, the APFA officially became the National Football League.'
NOTE: On September 17, 1920, a group of men gathered in Canton, Ohio at the Hupmobile showroom of Ralph Hay, owner of the hometown Bulldogs. The result of the meeting was the birth of the National Football League.
