Pro Bowl Helmet


This month's theme week is based on the 2009 NFL Pro Bowl. Definitely, my favorite game to shoot for the past five seasons as part of Aloha Stadium's JumboTron crew. It's the biggest football event held in Hawai‘i, which has been a sell-out since the first Pro Bowl in 1979 (I had attended that game as a fan).

With the 2009 game being the last of a current contract with the State of Hawai‘i, the NFL had decided that next year's edition would be played in Miami, FL, a week prior to the Super Bowl. It seemed that the NFL Pro Bowl would be a thing of the past. Though recently finalized, the Pro Bowl will return to Aloha Stadium for the 2011 & 2012 seasons.

Today's photo was taken at the end of the 2009 Pro Bowl Ohana Day. It was a Pro Bowl logo helmet belonging to a fan trying to collect autographs from players at the end of their practice sessions.
