The Age-Old Question: How Old Is the Chicago Bears Owner?
Ever sat around with your fellow Bears fans, tossing back some hot dogs and brews, and thought to yourself, "Man, I wonder how old the owner is?" Well, wonder no more, my friend, because you've stumbled upon the answer (and a little more)!
Fun Fact Alert!
The Chicago Bears' current owner is the formidable Virginia Halas McCaskey, and let me tell you, she's 101 years old. That's right, folks! She's practically seen it all, from the days of leather helmets to the million-dollar contracts of today's NFL. And guess what? She's been running the Bears since 1982! That's some serious dedication to the navy and orange.
But Wait, There's More!
Virginia McCaskey isn't just old (in the best way possible), she's also a total Bears legend. She's the daughter of the legendary George Halas, founder of the Bears, so you could say football is in her blood. She's known for her loyalty to the team and her focus on family values, which some say is why she hasn't gone all "modern NFL owner" with the team (ahem, spending sprees).
So there you have it! The next time you're at Soldier Field, cheering on your beloved Bears, you can do so with the knowledge that the woman in charge is a true force to be reckoned with. Now, that's something to write home about (or brag to your friends at the next tailgate party).
