The class of 2021 for the Ford Hall of Fans has been revealed. Were you aware that there was a Ford Hall of Fans? Guess you learn something new every day. And, hey, guess what? If you vote on this year’s six nominees, you could win Super Bowl tickets and a 2021 Ford F-150.


Sure to Put Points on the Board: The 2021 Ford Bronco is coming later this year, and it’s a doozy


So what is this Ford Hall of Fans, you ask? It launched two years ago as a way to honor die-hard NFL fans for lifetime commitments to their favorite teams. Three of the six nominees will join the six current inductees in the Pro Football Hall of Fame during 2021 Enshrinement Weekend. It’s an actual thing!

This year’s nominees (and the teams they stan for) are Kristi Brown (Arizona Cardinals), Justin Laveing (Pittsburgh Steelers), Wayne Mabry (Las Vegas Raiders), Jamie O’Pelt (Dallas Cowboys), Ray Prisby (Cleveland Browns), and Tony Roccograndi (Baltimore Ravens). Each was nominated by a legend from their respective squads, adding a little bit of extra specialness to the whole thing. Nominators include Lynn Swann of the Packers and Jim Brown of the Browns.

“All six of these superfans embody what the Ford Hall of Fans is all about — passion,” said Jim Peters, Ford Motor Company Brand Content and Alliance Partnerships Manager. “Even in a year as difficult and challenging as 2020, these fans continue to proudly support their teams week in and week out.”

Here’s where I’d typically make a joke about every year being difficult and challenging if you’re a Browns fan, but, hey, that’s not really apt this year, is it?
