Did you know the Super Bowl trophy is named after a Catholic?

Every year millions of people around the world tune in to the Super Bowl, partly to watch the game and partly to see the new commercials. The crowning moment of the Super Bowl is when the winning team is awarded the much sought-after Vince Lombardi Trophy.
