Growing up in the Philly area and being a season ticketholder to the Eagles, Vince Papale has always been a popular figure even though he only played a few years. In fact, the first "famous person" I ever met was Vince Papale. This was around 1980-81 and I was in 3rd or 4th grade when he came to speak at my school. The only thing I remember about it was that my class was sitting up front and that the female teachers were even more excited than the kids.
