Talk:List of the first college football games in each U.S. state

Sortable table, home/visitor and score

@MisterCake: Well done! I've added column sortation, which can be tricky when the data isn't identically formatted. Feedback and review, appreciated.
Regarding scores, it appears bolding denotes winner. If so, think this could be called out as key, below table. Related, scores are currently formatted as "Winner–Loser". Pending your confirmation on meaning of bolding, I think that should be updated as "Home–Visitor" and paired with an update to the corresponding sortation value. To the extent that sortation of the scores is non-intuitive, I'm open to entirely removing that column sortation option. Thoughts? UW Dawgs (talk) 18:03, 26 October 2015 (UTC)

I will come back to this as there are a few things I need to check anyway. For instance pretty sure the one put as in Rhode Island was in MA, and the first RI game was later. Table looks fine at a cursory glance. Cake (talk) 03:27, 28 October 2015 (UTC)

Walter Gladwin Park?

For the November 2, 1872 Columbia vs Rutgers game, we've got, " Walter Gladwin Park in The Bronx is the approximate location where the game was played.", but I don't see anything in the cited references which supports that. -- RoySmith (talk) 17:28, 7 June 2021 (UTC)
