Eddie DeBartolo Jr. Visits Pro Football Hall of Fame ahead of August Enshrinement

Mar 30, 2016 at 07:08 AM

Eddie DeBartolo Jr. has been a busy man of late.

After traveling to Las Vegas last weekend with a few Niners legends, the former owner was in Canton, Ohio, on Wednesday to tour the place where he'll be immortalized in just a few months.

DeBartolo began his visit to the Pro Football Hall of Fame by posing for a picture in front of a banner displaying his likeness along with the other 2016 inductees. DeBartolo then walked around the building, which already houses 15 Niners, many of whom played for him.

DeBartolo was fitted for his Hall of Fame jacket and bust back in February. He will be enshrined on August 6 during Hall of Fame weekend.
