Jacquelin Mitchard on her
childhood experiences and memories of the College All-Star Game:
At any rate, one
thing I learned was that there was something every season called the
Chicago College All-Star Game, which hasn't been held, I now know, since
1976. From my boyfriend (who, of course, didn't know he was my
boyfriend) I determined that it was a game played each year between all
the very best college ballplayers and the Green Bay Packers.
The Packers would always win. People at the bar in my uncle's resort
were not surprised by this: They gave the young collegians credit for
even showing up against the men who wore the green and gold. My
grandfather once told me that the Chicago College All-Star Game had been
going on since 1934, and I was amazed that they'd never given any other
pro football team a turn against the college players.
