History of FootballThe original design of a football was made out of a pig's bladder and the pig’s bladder was then inflated and used as the ball. Today the football is made out of an inflated rubber bladder surround with a pebble-grained cover or cowhide. Some people think it is Walter C. Camp who invented football in America. While some people think that the British troops invented football and then the Canadian Universities introduced football to the American Colleges. In China, people think that the Chinese invented football a thousand years ago. Some people think that it started in Romans and that the Romans tossed a pig’s head for fun.
