Vince Papale’s Cinderella rise from Philadelphia Eagles thirty-year-old season ticket holder to Philadelphia Eagles football player and team captain is the stuff that dreams are made of. His inspirational message is available for your next conference or meeting. In 1976 Philadelphia Eagles’ rookie head coach Dick Vermeil held a press conference and invited locals, including Vince, who was a former track star and then current Eagles’ season ticket holder, to a workout. Vince showed up at the workout and ran a 4.5 second 40-yard dash, a world class time! Coach Vermeil offered Vince a contract on the spot, but this 30 year old walk-on still had to make the team. Vince overcame tremendous odds and eventually became a team captain and played in the NFL for 4 years. His “never say die” attitude became the inspiration for turning the Eagles into a Super Bowl team. |
Preview |
From the Disney studios that brought you "Miracle", "The Rookie" and "Remember The Titans", came INVINCIBLE, inspired by the true story of Vince Papale (Mark Wahlberg), a man with nothing to lose who ignored the staggering odds and made his dream come true. When Dick Vermeil, head coach (Greg Kinnear) of Papale's beloved hometown football team, hosted an unprecedented open tryout, the public consensus was that it was a waste of time.... no one good enough to play professional football was going to be found in this way. Certainly no one like Papale - a down-on-his-luck, 30 year-old substitute teacher and part-time bartender who never even played college football. But against these odds, Papale made the team and soon found himself living every fan's fantasy - moving from those cheap seats in the upper deck to standing on the field as a professional football player..
In addition to being an inspirational football hero, Vince Papale is also an inspirational cancer survivor and speaks to groups across the country.

“You certainly were an inspiration to our attendees and you set a new standard for future meetings. To have a speaker of your caliber at our functions is a very special treat, one that future leaders will have a tough time duplicating. I am looking forward to seeing INVINCIBLE. It will be a great film to see." "
