The Chicago Bears' Charles Tillman gets Chipwrecked!

Chicago starting corner back Charles Tillman is one of the more charitable Bears. He's constantly active in the community and through his Cornerstone Foundation he's impacted the lives of well over a million Chicago area children. Earlier this week he and his foundation hosted the Chicago premier of the new movie Alvin & the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked.

Also lending their support at the event were current and former Chicago Bears Matt Toeaina, Alex Brown, Alfonso Boone, and Adrian Peterson. Kerry Wood and Marlon Byrd from the Chicago Cubs were also in attendance.

He's a really good guy
And it’s nice to see – given all of the crap that a lot of other professional athletes are pulling.
Class
When I was in Philly for the Stanley Cup Charles was kind enough to poise for a picture. He didn’t have to do it but he did.
Nice to see...
Tillman has really proven to be a class act. At training camp while signing autographs, he noticed the smaller kids up front were getting mauled against the fence and got the kids to calm down before he would continue. I am always glad to see when a player is as good a role model as they are a player. Guys like Peanut have value to the Bears organization that goes far beyond their on-filed performance.
Find out what the other team wants to do. Then take it away from them.

Tillman is real role model for kids and adults alike.
