A Grandfather on the Field

Listen here


When Mike Flynt steps onto the field for an American football game next week, he will be three times the age of the other players.

Flynt, a 59-year-old grandfather, dreamed of playing the game again after a 40-year break. Now he will get his chance. He will wear the uniform of Sul Ross State University in Texas.

Flynt, who is eight years older than his coach, has managed to stay in shape throughout his life.

American football is a rough sport. However, Flynt believes he is ready for the challenge.
