RALPH is a half-hour biographical documentary on Ralph C. Wilson, Jr., one of Buffalo’s most iconic sports figures. Wilson was the founder and long-time owner of the Buffalo Bills. After his death, the Bills were sold for a record $1.4 billion. The money from the sale was used to create the Ralph C. Wilson, Jr. Foundation, cementing a powerful sports and philanthropic legacy. 
RALPH uses interviews and archival material to tell the story of Ralph C. Wilson, Jr. Included in the program are Hall of Famers Marv Levy, Thurman Thomas and Jim Kelly, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, long-time Buffalo News reporter Vic Carucci, Mary Wilson and football historian and Bills collector Greg Tranter. The program is narrated by former ESPN announcer Chris Berman.
