Bears: Mike Ditka look-a-like takes over Chicago for NFL Draft

Share

Three years ago Ray Hart was walking along the Chicago River, innocently donning a pair of aviator sunglasses and a grey mustache when he heard some people shouting at him.

"Hey, Coach! Coach!" they shouted at the man who struck a distinct resemblance to Hall of Fame coach Mike Ditka.

"I didn't know what the heck they were talking about," Hart said. "Finally I caught on."

Ever since, Hart has been dressing up head-to-toe in Ditka garb, including his famous sweater and a cigar to match.

Hart says he attended two Bears games last season and was a hit at tailgates - no kidding - and is excited to get to show off his look with the NFL Draft taking place this week in Chicago.

"It's great to be from Chicago and look like Ditka," he said.
