Cool, but did anybody else notice these:

"Is the most famous trophy in the sporting world"

Uhhhh... "Henry" the World Cup of Soccer Cup might have something to say about that.

"Is the oldest trophy competed for by professional athletes"

In North America. (And I'm not even certain about Mexico...)

And they forgot the smallest town with the coolest name to ever win the cup: Rat Portage, Ontario, your 1906/07 Champeens of the world.
Cool stuff ! :mrgreen: :thumb: Can't believe how many spelling errors are on the Cup !! Makes you wonder if they got the inmates in the Pen to stencil in the names between Licence Plate Duty and Needlework . :lol:
