About the host
Hosted by Matthew Bassuener
Pigskin Journeyman isn’t just a name—it’s the story of a life spent chasing the game across the globe.
Founded by a former pro quarterback whose career spanned the AFL, Europe, South America, and the world stage with Team USA, Pigskin Journeyman properties are built from lived experience. From helping grow American football in Brazil to portraying Brett Favre in American Underdog—and serving as JD McCoy’s double on the final three seasons of Friday Night Lights—this is a brand created by someone who’s truly done it all. As one guest put it: “The Dos Equis man of football.”
After nearly 20 moves for football, film, and business, the mission became clear: to build the most authentic football-themed stays in America’s most iconic football towns.
It started with the original Pigskin Journeyman House in Green Bay—packed with mementos from a life in the game. Then came The Rockne House in South Bend, featured on CBS, just one mile from Notre Dame Stadium. From there, we opened the unapologetically bold Hall of Fame Snubs House in Massillon, Ohio—where high school football is religion—and then Rockne 2.0, a luxury upgrade of the original concept with a Finnish sauna, jumbotron sports bar, and speakeasy lounge.
Each home is intentionally designed, fan-approved, and loaded with the kind of details only a player would think to include.
This isn’t just a rental brand. It’s a legacy. And it’s just getting started.
Why they chose this property
It’s the best house on the best street—named for the patriarch of college football’s most storied program. The address? 2121 Rockne Drive—the same street number as the Pro Football Hall of Fame: 2121 George Halas Drive. Coincidence? Maybe. But football lives here.
