WE HAVE A

GREAT HISTORY

Fantasy sports have a rich history that dates back to the early 1960s. The concept was first introduced by a group of passionate sports fans, led by a man named Wilfred "Bill" Winkenbach, who created the first fantasy football league in 1962. The league, known as the "Greater Oakland Professional Pigskin Prognosticators League" (GOPPPL), used a point system to score players based on their real-life performances in NFL games.

The idea quickly gained traction, and in the 1980s, fantasy sports grew with the advent of computer technology and magazines like "Fantasy Sports Magazine" helping to spread the word. In the 1990s, the rise of the internet revolutionized fantasy sports, making it easier for fans to join leagues, track stats, and interact with others.

By the 2000s, fantasy sports had exploded in popularity, with millions of players joining leagues across the globe. Today, fantasy sports encompass various games, including football, baseball, basketball, and more, with daily fantasy sports (DFS) now offering even quicker, high-stakes gameplay.

From a small group of enthusiasts to a global phenomenon, fantasy sports have become a cornerstone of modern sports culture, combining love for the game with a competitive edge.
