- The road to recovery took another step Sunday for wounded Chicago Police Officer Del Pearson as he took part in Bears pre-game festivities at Soldier Field.
It was a day Pearson and his daughter will never forget.
"It's mixed emotions being out here," Pearson said. "It's a dream come true to be on the sidelines of a Chicago Bears game."
The highly decorated officer had the honor of handing the official coin to the referee for the coin toss at 50 yard line for Sunday's game against the Seattle Seahawks.
Too bad a little luck didn't rub off on the Bears though. Get well.
