- Boxing promoter Roderick James "Jess" McMahon (father of Vince McMahon Sr. and Vince McMahon Jr.) promotes, along with Tex Rickard, a light-heavyweight boxing championship between Jack Delaney and Paul Berlenbach at Madison Square Garden in New York City. This was believed to be the first major event a member of the McMahon family promoted at MSG, and thus began a relationship between MSG and the McMahon family that remains to this day.
