Ha Ha Clinton-Dix: 'My heart was in my stomach' at opening of reading room

For the first time in his NFL career, Green Bay Packers safety Ha Ha Clinton-Dix isn't in the playoffs. After playing in seven postseason games over the previous three years, Clinton-Dix and the Packers didn't qualify for the Super Bowl tournament this time around.

Still, the former Alabama All-American has had a January moment he'll never forget.

"My heart was in my stomach when I first walked in here and saw this up here," Clinton-Dix said. "Man, it's a dream come true."

Clinton-Dix was talking about the first Ha Ha HERO Headquarters at Benjamin Franklin Elementary School in Milwaukee, which had a ribbon cutting and official opening on Tuesday.
