Listen "Treasure Hunt: Where is the Oldest Trophy in US Sport?"
Episode Synopsis

In Episode 2 of An American Game, Tom and Kirk tell the story of the AFA Cup, first given out 140 years ago (before the Stanley Cup) and, for decades, the top prize in American soccer.

Fortunately, like Indiana Jones in an SUV, Tom tracked it down.If you want to see some of what we’re talking about (and what actors we look like) check out the video version: https://youtu.be/oyv5OHn22Bo
