Invincible is the true story of Vince Papale, a down-on-his-luck
teacher and part-time bartender lived every fan??'s fantasy of
moving from the stands to the field when he makes it onto his
hometown??'s professional football team during an open tryout.
Papale was a 30-year-old NFL rookie and former school
teacher/bartender who in 1976 tried out for and made the
Philadelphia Eagles during Coach Dick Vermeil's first season.
Papale showed up at the tryout and ran a 4.5 second 40-yard dash, a
world class time! Coach Vermeil offered him a contract on the spot,
but this 30-year-old walk-on still had to make the team. Papale
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. Invincible delves into Papale??'s background, particularly
that of his family, the mark that his family left on him, and how
ultimately, it impacted his relationships with other people
throughout his life.& nbsp; At its heart, Invincible is an
underdog story that will inspire others to pursue their dreams,
too.
