The Blanda is a river in Iceland which flows northwards from the northwest side of the Hofsjökull glacier into Húnaflói bay at Blönduós.
In the final quarter, Heisman Trophy winner Billy Cannon caught a short toss from Blanda and went for an 88-yard touchdown scamper.
With a third-and-five at the San Diego 35, Blanda rolled to his right and found Billy Cannon open at the 17.
Bears coach George Halas was unhappy with Blanda's play and pulled him, sending in Thrower.
