This panorama of the Chicago Bears, photographed by James Blakeway, captures the crowd excitement at Soldier Field. Originally named the Decatur Staleys, the club was founded by George Halas in 1920, renamed the Chicago Staleys in 1921 and then the Chicago Bears in 1922. The Bears have made their home at Soldier Field since 1971, which was named and serves as a memorial to American soldiers who have died in past wars. As a charter member of the Wall D?cor > Hardboards (Blockmounts) > Sports > NFL, the Bears have created a legacy in professional American football to include more victories than any other franchise, the most retired uniformed numbers and the most members in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
