The tradition of celebrating veterans is not new in the League. The Football League seems to have a huge respect for the country's professionals in service. For such reasons, NFL put forwards a gesture of respect towards them offering discounts, seat reserves in the games, Salute to Service theme commitment, etc.

It also expects its franchisees to follow the same in their matches all around the year. The teams like Cleveland Browns, Jacksonville Jaguars, Miami Dolphins, New York Jets, Raiders, Chargers, Buccaneers, etc. give off special discounted tickets to military personnel.
