when my information's are correct, then the inventor of the bolt-action system was born and lived in Kongsberg.
It's also known for its silver mines and weapon facility. I even read an article in the local newspaper that parts of the F-35 might be build here.

In the sixties world best ski jumpers came from Kongsberg.

Think you will find that the first professional football team whats Notts County, then Stoke City. And when you say Sheffield FC do you mean Wednesday or United?
