It's nice to see all these groups of GB's, but who can lay claim to being the first franchise?

I've seen the honor of first fan-created franchise given to Norm Gagnon (Paranorman) and the Northern Virginia Ghostbusters, with a citation of 1984 as their date of foundation; it'd be hard for anyone to have been founded earlier than 1984 for obvious reasons.
