Wednesday is "Sweetness Day" at Walter Payton College Prep — a day of community service in honor of the Chicago Bears great for whom the school is named.

"I figured he was there to be left alone and not sign autographs, so I didn't bother him, but he came over to me and asked if we could work out together. It still blows me away," said Kelly.
Kelly was a Barrington High School football player at the time of their meeting. He is now a scout with the Los Angeles Chargers.
