These include a commemorative marking the 150th anniversary of Princeton Football, and athletic achievement awards for other colleges such as University of California, Berkeley, and Stanford. You’ll also see prestigious annual honors such as ESPN’s Espy Awards (including the Muhammad Ali Humanitarian Award), and the National Football League Commissioner’s Awards.
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. These include a cricket-themed tombstone involving an Indian payments firm, a ping pong-themed deal toy involving London-area pubs, and a hockey rink-inspired design commemorating a real estate partnership involving U.S. and Canadian firms.
