The Freezer Bud Bowl II Football (Bud Light vs. Budweiser) with Display Box

Description

This item is from Phil Tuckett’s personal collection.  It took several decades within his career to amass these rare collectibles at events. The highlight is that it includes autographs of the most prominent entertainers, historical figures, and sports players Tuckett met along the way.

Presented from Tuckett’s personal collection is this promotional Bud Bowl II Football – Bud Light vs. Budweiser – Budweiser Super Bowl advertising display. It was from a Bud Bowl Media Pack for Bud Bowl II. The original display box is included and the ball itself is in excellent condition – all it needs is air. It features facsimile signatures from Bud Bowl “players” like The Freezer, Budway Joe, Coach Budka, Vince Lembrewski, and others.

Phil Tuckett suited up for a single game for the San Diego Chargers in 1968, and his time as a professional football player consisted of a year-and-a-half spent mostly on the Chargers practice squad. One might surmise that Tuckett’s contribution to professional football was minimal, and they would be correct, until taking into consideration that after retiring as a player Tuckett spent the next 38 years working for NFL films. Tuckett won 30 individual Emmy Awards in 30 years while with NFL films documenting the NFL. Of particular note, Tuckett worked directly with Ed Sabol, the man who started and was a huge part of  NFL Films.
