Earlier this month, the New England Patriots took a look back at one of the most important, franchise changing moments in team history.

On January 21st, 1994, Robert Kraft formally purchased the team from James Orthwein, preventing a move to St.Louis. 

As a result of Kraft’s investment, the Patriots have sold out every home game since 1994 and have appeared in ten Super Bowls during his ownership.

Check out throwback footage from the press conference that made the sale official in the link below.
