Penn State Honors Franco Harris

In September, it was announced that the Penn State All-Sports Museum would honor late program great Franco Harris. On Sunday, they unveiled a photo mural of Harris, which is made up of close to 2,000 photos sent by fans, friends and family.

The tiny photos work in unison to portray a photo of Harris playing in a Penn State uniform.

While Harris is widely known as the author to the ‘Immaculate Reception,’ he is also remembered as a person who would take time out of his day for a photo or conversation. His wife says that his willingness to spend ample time with strangers often times led to those two missing flights.

“I’m sure you could have filled this whole museum with photos He was a friend to almost everybody he met. Everybody he met came away with a friend.”
