Roger Staubach’s “Hail Mary” Turns 50 With Ultra-Limited Signed Football Release

Some moments are so powerful they don’t just win games, they change the language of sports forever. On December 28, 1975, Roger Staubach launched a desperation pass that sailed into history, giving football one of its most iconic phrases: the Hail Mary. Fifty years later, that single throw is being honored with an ultra-limited commemorative release from big game football factory worthy of the moment and the man behind it.

To mark the exact 50-year anniversary of the play that reshaped football vocabulary, an exclusive run of just 12 commemorative footballs has been produced, each personally signed by Staubach himself. this release is as rare as it gets once these are gone, they’re gone forever.

Every detail of the football is designed to honor the magnitude of that night. The ball features a custom “Hail Mary 1975” play diagram, a direct nod to the throw that stunned the Vikings, ignited Cowboys lore, and became a permanent part of sports culture. The timing of the release is just as intentional, launching on December 28, exactly five decades after Staubach etched his name into NFL history.

What makes this piece truly special is its scarcity. Only 12 footballs exist, mirroring Staubach’s legendary jersey number and reinforcing the exclusivity of the release. Each ball is hand-signed by the Hall of Fame quarterback, making every piece a direct connection to one of the most defining moments the game has ever seen.

The Hail Mary wasn’t just a pass it was a turning point. It’s replayed every season, referenced in every stadium, and attempted in every level of football.
