EPISODE SUMMARY

Jim Thorpe's victories in the 1912 Summer Olympic Games were officially returned on July 15, 2022. I've had many episodes where Thorpe's name has come up, but these are some of the more prominent. Enjoy these FHD Vault episodes.

THE FOOTBALL HISTORY DUDE BACKGROUND

The Football History Dude is a show dedicated to teaching NFL fans about the rich history of the game we all know and love. I’m your host, Arnie Chapman, and I’m just a regular dude that loves football and is a nerd when it comes to learning about history. I created this show to share the gridiron knowledge nuggets I gain from researching various topics about the history of the National Football League. Each episode I welcome you to climb aboard my DeLorean to travel back in time to explore the yesteryear of the gridiron, and yes, that’s a reference to the Back to the Future Movies.
