The 1952 Pro Bowl Game was the NFL’s second annual all-star game, and it was hosted at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. The game was an exhibition in order to showcase the League’s most talented players from the season prior. The event attracted roughly 19,400 fans to the Coliseum. The National Conference squad defeated the American Conference with a final score of 30-13.
The National Conference was coached by Joe Stydahar, the head coach for the LA Rams. The American Conference team was led by Bill Brown, the coach for the Cleveland Browns. Dan Towler of the Los Angeles Rams, who was called the “closest thing the NFL has ever produced to an unstoppable ball carrier,” won MVP of the game. Each winner on the National’s team took away $600, while the members of the losing American team took away $500 each.
