CNN 10

A Tradition Like No Other | December 9, 2022
Happy Friday from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where CNN 10 is featuring a special look at the Army-Navy Game. Dating back to 1890, the traditions, pageantry, passion, and respect make this matchup one of the greatest rivalries in American sports. So big that 10 sitting U.S. presidents have attended.
