Just saw this in the Herald:

The Pro Football Hall of Fame is coming to South Florida.

Well, at least a portion of the Canton, Ohio, attraction will make its home at Dolphins Stadium for a week in late October.

The Hall is lending the club the busts of the nine Dolphins in the Hall so they, along with other Miami-related Hall exhibits and local memorabilia, can be on display in the days leading to the team's Oct. 23 game against Kansas City.

The Dolphins are celebrating their 40th anniversary and plan to honor quarterback Dan Marino's induction into the Hall this year. The celebration will happen primarily during that game.

The original Hall of Fame busts for Marino, coach Don Shula, linebacker Nick Buoniconti, fullback Larry Csonka, quarterback Bob Griese, center Jim Langer, guard Larry Little, center Dwight Stephenson and receiver Paul Warfield will be the centerpieces of that celebration.

Aside from the temporary visit by the Hall busts, the team is planning a permanent museum at Dolphins Stadium filled with club memorabilia and exhibits.

All museums lend their works of arts to other countries museums so that they can be appreciated by more people.

The busts of the Dolphin HOFs are not work of arts but its the same principle.Many fans who have not been able to visit the HOF will be able to see the busts and the corresponding bios.

IMO its a great idea to have access to them for special occasions.
 
Do you think the Dolphins cheerleaders busts will also be on display? The line of fans would circle the stadium.
 
Yeah i know its late Oct but i wonder the exact dates of the week that the busts will be there. I think this is a great idea. Ive been to Canton numerous times because im from pittsburgh but for all you south floridians that havent had a chance to take in the greatness of the hall of fame HERES YOUR CHANCE.
