This picture accompanies the contribution called "James Lofton and Andy Reinhart, 1981."

The year was 1981 and I was 11yrs old living in Two Rivers, Wis. My older brother Chuck and his girlfriend Carol were going to Green Bay for the Packer Fan Photo Day and I was thrilled that they were taking me too!
