Trump's outsider status appealed to some voters who were tired of the same old political establishment. They felt that Washington was corrupt and out of touch with the people. They believed he would shake up the system and drain the swamp.

On September 20, 1973, Billie Jean King made history by defeating Bobby Riggs in the famous "Battle of the Sexes" tennis match. The event, viewed by over 90 million people worldwide, was more than just a tennis match—it was a pivotal moment for gender equality in sports. King’s victory over the self-proclaimed "male chauvinist" Riggs was a powerful statement against sexism and helped shift public perceptions of female athletes, paving the way for greater opportunities and recognition for women in sports.

On September 18, 1938, an NFL game between the Chicago Bears and the Green Bay Packers became one of the lowest-scoring victories in NFL history. Played in constant rain, the Bears won 2-0 due to a safety, caused by a bad snap that went over the Packers' end line. Despite several Hall of Fame players on the field and multiple missed field goal attempts, the weather heavily influenced the outcome.
