The Payton family will meet with the Chicago Park District regarding the possible placement of a Walter Payton statue outside Soldier Field, a representative for Connie Payton-Strotter said Wednesday. "We reached out to each other and we will get things worked out, one way or the other," publicist Kelly Woods said. No date has been set for the meeting. The park district released a statement in response to a Tribune story that outlined its position opposing the placement of the statue outside Soldier Field. Source: Fred Mitchell, Chicago Tribune
They should and better put a statue of Walter Payton outside of Soldier Field. The man was everything to the Chicago Bears during his playing days.
There's so much conflicting crap out there: Park District's against it/Payton family says they're in conversation with Park District/ Park District denies conversations with Payton family but are open to meeting with them. Who the F knows... It would be nice to see tho
