Arthur Tipton[edit]

(

)

... that 1898 All-American football player Arthur Tipton prompted a rule change when he kicked a loose ball down the field and fell on it for a touchdown after it crossed the goal line?

Created on 16 August, long enough and well referenced. The hook fact is interesting and supported by an inline citation (note that I added "football player" to the hook since the sport wasn't otherwise obvious). No close paraphrasing found except for a couple of short phrases which can't reasonably be worded differently. So we're just waiting on the QPQ and the hook will be good to go. 97198 (talk) 12:23, 26 August 2014 (UTC)
