4:29 “ruckters”

Bro why couldn’t have put this out a year ago. I did a speech on this and had to do soo much research because like you said their isn’t a lot of documentation. It made me happy that we had a really similar timeline though

Fun fact: There's only one rule from the first game in 1869 that's still in effect. The free kick.

I love that you did this, so much. Some real history being dropped!

As a Rutgers fan, being considered the “birthplace” is the only thing we got going for us

It’s Halloween, a Jon Bois video came out earlier today, and now a KTO video! This has got to be one of the better days in a while.

Seahawks fans: Oh, this was a neat video *outro plays* Seahawks fans: Why do you hurt me so?

Kto was my biggest inspiration to make my own football videos. His content is insane

Technically, the Triangles did exist in the 30's, they just moved to Brooklyn and became the Dodgers

I’m dressing up as Korn on the cop tn

arizona cardinals: we are the first football team ancient greek: hold my terracotta

I've never heard any of this. Great research.

I'm from Dayton. The NFL was supposed to fund a football stadium at the site where the first NFL game was. However, it was discovered that the site was an ancient Native American burial ground, so they are working on securing another site for the stadium

But, my momma said that she invented the fooosball.

Was waiting on this!!

Wow this video was very well put together. Found your channel recently and am loving it!

Another great video! You do an amazing job telling the story. I've gone back and watched many of them since I first saw your video on RGIII. I'll definitely hit them all. Like NFL Life and 30 for 30 you have the ability to keep me interested in a story I never thought I'd be interested in. Keep it up KTO!

It's amazing how the nfl has become now

From a former football player and Daytonian, I'd like extend a HUGE THANKS to you KTO...awesome video, hope to see more in the near future! You're the best!

Love your channel KTO

Bruhhhh well done. Super informative, fact filled and short. Very entertaining

1:39 Yeah Dayton Ohio gang

Highlight of my day! Keep it up.

Wish it was longer! Love the vids KTO!

Finally another one

Honestly binge watching KTO is the best

Very very informative video!! Excellent video👍

I recently watched Leatherheads, and understanding that it’s movie that self admittedly isn’t an accurate depiction of early football, I became very interested in the birth of football in the US. Thank you for this informative video.

Literally the best timing on your music!

I had no clue about any of this. Very informative video about football and well done.

Going back and watching old KTO videos hits different, this video ages like wine.

Love learning the history of sports and football is no different! Great video!

Great vid 😤

Man you can't disrespect my boy Teddy Roosevelt like that and not talk about how he enforced the changes to football to make it more like the sport we know today.

Hey, KTO! Can you do a video on the 3 QB duels between Steve Young and Jim Kelly? All 3 games (2 USFL + 1 NFL) are certainly worth a mention and are incredibly entertaining, especially "The Greatest Game No One Ever Saw" and the "No Punt Game."

4:27 andrew luck playing football in the 19th century.

Man I love this channel

This is the only place I come to get information about football love you KTO

Great video bruh!

I love ur vids kto

back-to-back days with an upload? hell yea! love ya kto

Love sports history videos!

You just made a man cry KTO :’)

My dad went to Rutgers. He liked to tell me how the 1st college football game was played there. Because I was little and he was ‘old’, for many years I assumed he had been at the game!

Great video!!

Holy shit! Nov. 6th is my birthday! If that really was the same day that football as we know it started that is fucking crazy! Thanks so much for your videos KTO! You're a legend! 👊

As a history major, this is pretty slick :)

Great video!! Thanks

great video gonna use this for my class presentation about football

Awesome video, as always. Question: any idea what the first game was that was by these more modern rules? Like, what the first game was that actually had a line of scrimmage & a snap from center?

notifacation squadddd! love your vids, keep up the good work!

Kto the goat with another fire video

Great. One of your best videos. You should do one focusing just on the fascinating 1860s-1880s period.

Just HAD to throw that audio in at the end for us Seahawks fans 😭

I’ve played both football and rugby and it’s really cool to see this video

Wow!! Cool video!! The roots of football as u describe earlier in the video remind me of my Rugby playing days in the 1980's and 1990's. It's only the past 2 decades or so that's seeing the professionalization of Rugby, even though it started before American football, LOL

MY HOMETOWN TEAM THE DAYTON TRIANGLES BABY! LETS GO!

I really want Ken Burns to make a series on American Football.

KTO I like the videos that you put up in your channel, and also I like the music you played beginning at 1:02. I'm very curious as to what that music is called. Thanks.

Walter Camp is the 🐐

Let's go! Most underrated youtuber just posted

I just love the outros on these vids

Love ur vids KTO. Could you do a video on where Connor Cook went? I remember him being a pretty decent QB at MSU but I don’t recall hearing his name after they got humiliated in the last game (wasn’t it the CFB Playoff semis?)

This is pretty cool. kudos to you

Hey KTO. I currently play for the Watertown Red & Black, ever heard of us? We are the oldest football organization in the United States, first Fielding a team in 1896. We are amateur, or semi pro as most people call us. Would love to see a video about this historic team, and share us out world wide!!

I’d love more historical videos like this

Me a Seahawks fan: “why you do me like that!?”

I love ur videos

Dude, yes.

This may be my all time favorite video under 7 minutes

KTO, can we have another what if? I know it’s a ton of work, but they’re seriously awesome. One idea for you: What if Elway played for the Colts? I know the N-if-L has probably down that, but you go much more in depth. Thanks so much.

Desde CdMx saludos. Gran, gran video! Buena edición, imágenes y narración. Sigue así. Nací en el 1973.....me gusta el football desde 1979 jeje. Empecé a jugar en el 80. Ya pasó tiempo. Es sensacional el 🏈

I'm from Dayton, and it's pretty cool to know the first game was held there

You know it’s a good day when KTO uploads

DAYTON OHIO BABY! I drive past Triangle Park every day! Such crazy history

Last time i was this early KTO was still a d1 runner

I was under the impression that the different football related games we have around the world ... from rugby, to Australian Rules, to Canada to the USA ... all came about because there was a disagreement on what the rules and structure of "association football" were, in that there was very little communication at the time. I recall reading that, at the time, American Football was distinguished from Association Football by calling it "Soc Ball" and this later morphed into calling it "soccer." Thanks for shedding light on how it more likely came about, and the role that Walter Camp played. I do think "soccer" did play a role (11 a side, the size of the field and ball. Original American Football was round)

Great video and being from Wisconsin, the amount of cities here that once had a pro team is staggering. Actually, the Midwest has many cities that once had an NFL team. Actually, the first legal forward pass came from Waukesha Wisconsin at Carroll College. Bear Down from Wisconsin...... they've been down of late.

I recently found out my friend’s great-great grandfather was the captain of the Princeton team that played in the first game and came back to this video. Crazy stuff

A new KTO video liked in first five seconds

Thank you Walter Camp. You made a beautiful sport.

I’m an simple man When I get a KTO notification, I click

Nice Homework my friend. Educational stuff.

Hi KTO, love your vids! I've heard that intro piano music in several other channels, and I'm dying to know what it is. I know it comes from a sound pool but I'd love to know the exact name and or composer. Thanks!

Best history presentation ever!

Loved the video but I missed the outro highlight that usually gives me goosebumps

Nice vid👍🏻!

How can this kid just instantly give you chills

Being a Packers fan and being recognized as one of the most historic teams makes me feel good

I heard that the dayton triangles somehow sort of exist as the Indianapolis Colts today through a long complicated history of their entire rosters getting acquired by different teams

As a school kid we used to play a version of Mob Ball called Dirty Hunch. A basketball would be taken "out" by a volunteer far from the basket, and they would have to run the gauntlet of other kids kicking their ass while trying to shoot or layup the ball into the basket. If they miss, whoever caught the ball would be the next victim. Nobody really wanted the ball, they just wanted the opportunity to beat up the person who had the ball lol.

Thanks KTO

Do a video on the most versatile player, A.K.A. Taysom Hill, his story is incredible. I know Flemlo Raps made a video on him, but you should still do one!

Shoutout from Dayton, Ohio!

Loved the video but I’m salty about it cause I’m a hawks fan 🤣

KTO is awesome

3:01 Hey, Calcho Historica! (Italian for "Historical Football") The modern version of Harpastum.

First NFL game with an NFL team (the other being semipro) was in Rock Island, IL, been there, it is a little league field now, wow.

Love kto

what if drew bledsoe never got injured!!
