After the 1914–15 season, the Football League ceased its schedule, and amateur competitions were tough to organise with so many men in the war, so women stepped in. Munitions workers, or'munitionettes,' organised football teams and competed against other plants. Munitionette football had a large fan base, and many matches were held on the grounds of professional teams. When the conflict ended, the female players were forced to hang up their boots and return to the domestic life they had been leading before to the war. However, the sport continued to thrive until 1921, when women were barred from playing on Football League fields.

Several studios rejected A New Hope (Episode IV), which was released as Star Wars before 20th Century Fox consented to create it. Despite being intrigued by Lucas' ideas, United Artists rejected him.

If you happen to be in Key West, Florida, for the holidays, stop by the Bourbon St. Pub, where each new year is greeted by a massive shoe.

They retained its autonomy while also making economic concessions to it. The three distinctive towers of the old town, which are also featured on the flag, represent the tenacity of the Republic.
