Pro Football Hall of Famer Paul Hornung’s Hometown Hall of Famers plaque was presented by The Pro Football Hall of Fame and Allstate Insurance Company today at 4:00 in the Trinity High School convocation hall.
Hornung is a lifetime Louisville native who graduated from Flaget High School. Flaget closed its doors in 1974, and many students and faculty members found a new home at Trinity High School in St. Matthews. The school maintains an archival presence for Flaget in its Alumni Hall.
The presentation is part of the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s Hometown Hall of Famers™ program, in which Hall of Famers are presented with a historical plaque in their hometown.
Presented by Allstate Insurance Company, the program honors the roots of the players’ great careers and promotes the positive values of the sport. There have been only 267 members inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame from the more than 21,000 athletes who have played for the NFL.
