The Chicago Bears 100th anniversary celebration figures to be something truly special. A look at the deep past of one of the most storied franchises in professional sports. Not just the NFL. For a team built on embracing traditions, something like this is right down their alley. Now they'll get a chance to explore every aspect of what made this organization great.
What people may not grasp is just how far the Bears ownership is willing to go to make this event a success. From June 7th to 9th, they're going to have no fewer than 15 panel discussions from an assortment of personalities ranging from current and former players to coaches, GM Ryan Pace, and even some of their most prominent scouts and personnel directors.
This truly will be a once-in-a-lifetime experience for those who are able to make the journey to the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont.
