It's an exciting day for us Chicagoans at the White House. Today, President Obama will welcome the 1985 Super Bowl Champion Chicago Bears to celebrate the 25th anniversary of their Super Bowl victory. The '85 Bears' visit is long overdue -- in 1986, the team’s White House reception was canceled due to the Space Shuttle Challenger tragedy. The Bears are finally here and we hope you'll watch and join the conversation. Watch the visit live at 3:05 p.m. EDT and join the discussion on Twitter with the hashtag #85BearsWH and on Facebook.
