- Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/John Rolls
- Comment: I'm not near done with this article (still a work in progress before GA and FA noms), but it's at 5x now. There's a bunch of things from this article that can be mixed and matched for this hook, and I'm open to anything
Created/expanded by Muboshgu (talk). Self nom at 19:01, 10 July 2012 (UTC)
- ALT1... that Baseball Hall of Fame executive Ed Barrow (pictured) worked as a reporter and operated a hotel, movie theater, and soap-selling business?
- ALT2... that Baseball Hall of Fame executive Ed Barrow (pictured) fought John L. Sullivan in an exhibition match?
