Super Bowl Championship Clothing Blanks Make Appearance In Africa
There are some countries where sports history is recorded differently than it is here. For example, if you go to the African nation of Niger, the Buffalo Bills are the greatest football dynasty of all-time.
If you go to Uganda, you may find Tom Bray and the New England Patriots have never won a thing. And in the tiny country of Sierra Leone, the Philadelphia Eagles, Seattle Seahawks, and Chicago Bears all won championships in the past decade
That's because these are just a few of the third-world countries that receive the clothing blanks created for the losers of the NFLs Super Bowl.
In case you were unaware, before every Super Bowl (as well as both the Conference Championship games) the National Football League takes a bunch of blank clothing and prints out a series of "Super Bowl Champion" hats and t-shirts for the players and coaches to wear immediately after the game is over (It makes for some great advertising for a product they then sell the next five months at $40 a pop).
The only problem? Well, when we wrote that they hand out the clothing blanks immediately after the game ended, we literally mean IMMEDIATELY. They don't wait for the final score to be decided before printing the championship clothes, and because of this, they are stuck with clothing blanks that declare a Super Bowl Champion that never was.
The same thing does, from time to time, occur in Major League Baseball, as well as the National Basketball Association and the National Hockey League. But because those sports play their championships out in a best-of-seven game format, the double clothing blanks are only printed when it's a situation where both teams could potentially be crowned.
For each Super Bowl, there are exactly 288 clothing blanks that never get used. On the evening of the Super Bowl they are locked and guarded somewhere in the stadium. The National Football League goes out of its way to ensure those articles of clothing are never seen on television, nor do they ever make it to online retail stores or auction sites like eBay.
The following Monday they are sent to a warehouse in a town outside of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania called Sewickley. It is at this point that the clothing blanks go from being property of the NFL to being the property of World Vision, a relief organization that provides clothing to third-world impoverished nations.
