Bart Starr is a legendary NFL quarterback, but age and disease have robbed the Green Bay Packers icon of his football memory.
According to ESPN’s Rob Demovsky, Starr’s wife Cherry said she hopes Thursday’s ceremony retiring Brett Favre’s jersey will trigger Bart’s ability to recall his former life.
“I hope when Bart walks on the field that it will bring back a lot of really nice thoughts and experiences. I just think it will be really stimulating to him to see all the lights and all the people and to hear the cheering.
