Dave Viti
- ... that when Canadian Football Hall of Famer Ralph Sazio visited Boston University to scout a certain player, he became so impressed by Dave Viti that he signed him instead? Source: Hamilton Tiger-Cats ("Dave was originally from Rhode Island and played collegiate football at Boston University. This is where he caught the attention of Ralph Sazio who was an assistant coach for the Ti-Cats at the time. Ironically Sazio was at the Boston University scouting another player but was so impressed with Dave that he convinced Dave to sign what was supposed to have been a non-binding contract.")

QPQ: 
- Not done
Overall: 
@BeanieFan11: Good article, but it's more like 2-3 days late so I have to wonder if that's okay. Also, QPQ needed. Onegreatjoke (talk) 04:10, 30 June 2023 (UTC)
- Onegreatjoke, the 5x expansion started on 21 June, according to DYKcheck (there was an edit the day before, but it isn't needed for the 5x expansion), so it was eight days only from 21 June to the nomination on 29 June; this was nominated in time given that BeanieFan11 properly invoked supplementary rule D9, so it's okay. The QPQ is still needed, as you noted, and must be supplied by 7 July if this nomination is to succeed. Note: I'm not sure whether pings work within the DYK checklist template; you might want to notify the nominator directly on their talk page using the {{DYKproblem}} template, which can be copied from the section just above the edit window when editing a nomination page.
