An Associated Press report from Oslo the next day noted that a crowd of 500 watched, and that the introduction of the sport was credited to \"Alf Stenere, former Norwegian exchange student to Bowdoin College, and Tony Bower of Kansas City, 17-year old student here\". Reportedly, Riis won the first game, 20-13.In 1983, the Norwegian American Football Federation (NAFF) was founded. NAFF played its first international game in Stockholm, Sweden, and won 38-0.
