Steve McMichael, Rock & Roll, & Raising Money for our Troops

by Lester A. Wiltfong Jr. on May 13, 2011 3:00 PM CDT in Events

That sounds like a hell of a weekend! Any self respecting Chicago Bears fan has to get fired up by at least two of those three things up there in the title. Former Chicago Bear, Steve "Mongo" McMichael is hosting a 3 day event at his fine establishment, Mongo's On Main, in Sandwich, Illinois on May 28th, 29th and 30th. Where is Sandwich, IL you may ask? It's west of Chicago, I took the liberty of Mapquesting it for you.

Steve McMichael's Troop Stock is a three day Rock and Roll event to help raise money for military families. You can check out Mongo's website, www.Mongo76.com, for more information.

Bears Hall of Famer Dan Hampton is scheduled to be there and other Chicago Bears legends are slated to appear. They are having a Pre-Party with McMichael, The Rock Chick from Chicago radio station WLUP The Loop, and other celebrities. They are selling VIP passes that include access to a private party inside Mongo's On Main with free food and beverages and a meet and greet with most of the bands.

Some bands that are scheduled to appear are Foghat, Evolution, 7th Heaven, and Jimmie Van Zant.

Why do I have the feeling that you haven't partied until you've partied with Steve McMichael?

I'd be there if I could, hell just to see Fog Hat.

I also support this 100% as any organization or person who is actively supporting our troops is fine by me. Also lets not forget our, police, fire, medical personnel and teachers.

Oh and when was the last time you thanked your garbage man???

And I mean that with true sincerity.

Yes yes yes...

But how’s your body language? Are you passing this on to your friends? And why are you pouting?

You sir, I question your leadership.

lol

If you go in the bathroom, turn off the lights, and say "Da Coach" 5 times while facing the mirror... Ditka will appear and slap the wussy right out of you.

McMichael could ball with the best of them as well

Great run blocker and solid pass rusher McMichael was the unsung hero of the ’85 Bears. Lining up with Hampton and Dent makes him the third best guy on the line which shows how phenomenal that line was. Running the ball was impossible against that group and passing was an experiment in machocism for the opposing QB.
Glad to see the heros of yesteryear still getting some love, and when its all for the troops overseas its that much more important.
God bless America boys and girls!

White Sox fans need not apply.
