Cal Bear Legend and NFL Star
Signs @Game for Sports Gallery
 

Lots of Smiles at Sports Gallery's @Game Signing with Chuck MuncieOn October 25, 2008, University of California Legend Chuck Muncie particpated in Sports Gallery's first ever @Game Signing before the Cal/UCLA game.

Harry Vance "Chuck" Muncie was a star running back at Cal during the 1970s. Big, fast, elusive, and with a great set of hands, Chuck set six (then) school rushing records, including most touchdowns and most yards gained in a single season. He was instrumental in Cal's NCAA-leading offense which propelled the team to the co-championship of the Pac-8 in 1975, and he appeared on the cover of Sports Illustrated. Muncie was a strong candidate for the Heisman Trophy and finished second in the voting that year behind Archie Griffin of Ohio State. The New Orleans Saints selected Chuck in the 1st round of the 1976 NFL Draft with the 3rd overall selection. Muncie went to the Pro Bowl and was named that game's MVP after the 1979 season. Chuck also became the first Saints player ever to reach the 1,000-yard rushing plateau when he ran for 1,198 yards in 1979. Later with the Chargers, Muncie was selected for the Pro Bowl twice, including 1981 when he ran for 1,144 yards and an NFL-high 19 touchdowns. In San Diego, Muncie also helped lead the team to two AFC West division championships and he twice appeared on the cover of Sports Illustrated. Today, Chuck has committed himself to mentoring at-risk youth by creating his own non-profit organization called the Chuck Muncie Youth Foundation, which works to move youth and adolescents. Muncie also currently mentors University of California football players.

 
 
Signing for almost two hours on a glorious October morning at Berkeley, Chuck got football Saturday off to a great start for the Cal faithful. The Sports Gallery tent in the FunZone was packed with fans getting autographs from a Bear football legend before heading into Memorial Stadium to watch the Bears trounce the Bruins. Chuck chatted with fans, posed for photos and, of course, signed many Cal (and Saints and Chargers) collectibles for his many fans. Just a great day in Berkely with a great football player (and a great guy!).
