Chicago Bears Family Night

Chicago Bears FAMILY NIGHT was pretty darn fun last night.
We arrived a little after 3:00pm at Soldier Field, they had food, beverages, vendors and radio stations set up outside the stadium. We took some pics of that but I am only planning on posting the Bears pictures here from the event. I will scrapbook everything else in the future.

This event is a chance for the fans to watch the bears practice and a chance for the bears to have a practice session at Soldier Field.

We were in section 140 row 13 seat 1-4. Awesome seats! I had to laugh because a little boy behind us was complaining that they weren't close at all. Spoiled Brat! To top it off his mom said that next year she would find out what day the tickets went on sale and would make sure they got seats closer. HUH? Anyway here's a picture as to how close we were:


Following are some pictures of the practice. Brad Maynard holding for Robbie Gould:


Brian Urlacher and Hunter Hillenmeyer. I think the guy in the middle is a defensive coach


The 3 quarterbacks are in this picture. Unfortunately you only see the front of 1 of them; Kyle Orton:


Kyle Orton quarterbacking a play:


Devin Hester receiving a punt. BTW he got past the defense in this play and would have taken it in for a TD if it was an actual game, but they stop the play because it is only a practice.


I think we all had a good time, we purchased some cool t-shrits, ate stadium food, were able to see the Chicato Bears and at the end watched some pretty awesome fireworks. Make sure you check out Todd's blog sometime this week he was planning to post a few different pictures and you can read his perspective on the evening.
