I think they mentioned that they were going to reveal the number retirement/ROH ceremony next fall during the 2015 season.
I'm sure it will be fall. I can't imagine they'll do it in December in the cold weather.
Yes I'm sure it will be fall. I went to Reggie's ceremony, it was awesome. It was an a nice fall day and the entire crowd was chanting, "REG-GIE!" "REG-GIE!" "REG-GIE!"
I had goosebumps. It was during halftime, it was a priceless moment, they showed some highlights, a quick speech, a stadium full of people wearing Reggie White jerseys (I wore mine), probably one of the only days since his passing I saw more Jerseys with his name on it in the stands than the QB or other players. It was fantastic. I flew in from Florida to attend that game, it was so worth it.
