For 614 Day*, we worked with sports designer, writer and historian Todd Radom for a Twitter Takeover. Throughout the day, Todd shared old logos, photos and other content from the long history of sports in Columbus. Here's a recap in case you missed it live.
 

How did the Columbus Crew get their name and what did the team look like when they kicked off for the first time?

 

The Blue Jackets were the first team to call downtown Columbus home.

 

Did you know Columbus had a women's tackle football team nearly 50 years ago?

 

And Columbus played in the first ever NFL game? Unfortunately the Panhandles lost to the Dayton Triangles.

 

Head to Twitter to see every post and follow us there for fun and exclusive content every day.

 

*What is 614 Day? Columbus' area code is 614, so on June 14 (or 6/14), the community celebrates the people, places and moments that make Columbus great.
