Panthers, Falcons invite Sister Jean to visit during NFL season
Sister Jean is a very popular woman right now.
The 98-year-old team chaplain of Loyola Chicago has become a viral sensation during the Ramblers' improbable run to the Final Four of the NCAA tournament, and now has NFL teams lining up to meet her.
The Carolina Panthers were the first club to extend Sister Jean an invite to visit in the fall.
Dear @RamblersMBB,

Can Sister Jean come visit us in the fall? pic.twitter.com/16G6A6BFGS
Congrats on the win @RamblersMBB! The offer for Sister Jean is still on the table ☺️

After the Ramblers knocked off Kansas State on Saturday to advance to the Final Four for the first time in 55 years, the Atlanta Falcons made their pitch.
Hey @RamblersMBB, how about you let Sister Jean stay in Atlanta for football season. Cool?

The Panthers weren't having it, though.
Nah. We got it covered already! Thanks. pic.twitter.com/JakQhoW60i

Given her ties to Chicago, the Bears may have the best shot at landing a visit from the chaplain.
