Staubach, Pearson connect again in digital Hail Mary project
Roger Staubach and Drew Pearson are always open to new ways of commemorating their famous Hail Mary touchdown that gave the Dallas Cowboys a playoff victory over the Minnesota Vikings in 1975. Nothing says “new” quite like a digital collectible known by a term that might sound like a foreign language to folks old enough to remember Staubach's 50-yard heave in the final seconds, and Pearson's on-the-hip catch after his forever-debated contact with defensive back Nate Wright a few yards from the end zone. The non-fungible token, or NFT, will be on sale through Dallas-based Heritage Auctions on Aug. 21-22 with a starting bid of $20,000 and estimates that the price tag could reach $80,000.
