One of the largest sports leagues in the world quietly dropped NFTs through a partnership with a leading ticketing company on Thursday.

What Happened:

The National Football League (NFL) partnered with Ticketmaster, a unit of Live Nation Entertainment, Inc., to launch virtual commemorative tickets.

The first virtual commemorative ticket game happened on Nov. 7 in a match between the Arizona Cardinals and San Francisco 49ers. Fans who attended the game in person can get a virtual commemorative ticket from the game.
