Thursday can be an underrated day of the week, yet a lot of significant moments in history happened on a Thursday, like the signing of the Declaration of Independence and the premiere of Sharknado. Tons of great football moments have happened on a Thursday as well, and the NFL is celebrating those moments with a new ad from R/GA.

The campaign, "Anything Can Happen," promotes Thursday Night Football, which kicks off Sept. 15. The video highlights important historical Thursday moments, like the launch of the Model T and Pac-Man, and, perhaps most importantly for NFL fans, an awesome pass by Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
