Other milestones commemorated in these galleries include the successful negotiation of a collective bargaining agreement for a professional sports league, the formation of a joint-venture sports network, and the Super Bowl victory of the Philadelphia Eagles.
Finally, you’ll notice among the tombstone designs included here some transactions that do not relate to the sports industry but still have sports themes.
