R to @daily_btc_lore: 5/9 - BitPay paid for the sponsorship itself in bitcoin, reportedly about $500,000 a year, roughly 900 BTC at the time. Fans could also buy tickets and merchandise with bitcoin through Ticketmaster. The whole event was bitcoin-denominated, not just bitcoin-branded.

R to @daily_btc_lore: 8/9 - On December 26, 2014, NC State beat UCF 34-27 at Tropicana Field. Bitcoin’s name was on a nationally televised football game for the first time. It was strange, a little awkward, and exactly what an unproven currency needed: a shot at looking normal.
