Scott Wilseck says he’s watched Chicago Bears contests “from the womb.” The Estes Park resident has a streak of watching more than 500 consecutive home games.

With the Denver Broncos in the midst of an upswing from recent seasons, getting tickets is becoming a greater priority for Coloradans. One exception is Scott Wilseck of Estes Park. Wilseck is a devoted NFL fan, but his allegiances lie further east – to Chicago, where he’s attended every Bears home game for the last 60 years. 

SIXTY, as in six decades.

Wilseck joined Colorado Matters to discuss his amazing run, which he said sort of began "in the womb" in 1947 and some of the close calls that threatened to end his super fandom.
