Robert Dean


Robert Dean was just a boy...a boy who would become a man...a man destined for Pro Set glory. "On August 19, 1991, the 5 millionth visitor to the NFL HOF walked through the turnstyle. Robert Dean, a gangly 14 year old from Portland, Oregon was showered with a $1,000 shopping spree in the museum's shop, a lifetime membership, and his very own trading card with his picture on it. The family didn't even have plans to visit the Hall of Fame that day. According to family legend, Robert's father Steve missed the exit on the turnpike and decided to take the scenic route. They ended up on route 62 and decided to stop at the Hall of Fame". This had to be a turning point in young Robert's life. This Rick Moranis look-alike went from bridge-framed glasses dorkhood to the front a Pro Set baseball card.
