Bart Starr collapses on stage

Found December 04, 2012 on Sports-Glory: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Aaron Rodgers,  Charles Woodson,  James Jones,  A.J. Hawk
TEAMS: Green Bay Packers
Hall of Fame quarterback Bart Starr reportedly collapsed Tuesday as he was giving a speech at a Wisconsin Housing and Economic Development Authority conference.  Starr, 78, was the keynote speaker at the conference and spoke for 45 minutes, but near the end of his speech he paused for about 15 to 20 seconds and then collapsed on stage. Starr sat up on his own and said he was fine.  He left the convention center with his wife, Cherry, after medical personnel evaluated him briefly.    Starr led the Green Bay Packers to six divisional titles, five National Football Championships and two Super Bowls in the 1960s.

Via This Given Sunday  |  December 05, 2012
