Patriots owner Robert Kraft led a group of nineteen NFL Hall of Famers to Israel last week. The eye-opening trip was a big hit for both the NFL fans from Israel but for the players from the NFL’s best who take back an experience many won’t soon forget.
Their visit to the Holy Land consisted of visiting places of historic and religious importance, meeting with various political leaders including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The trip was arranged and paid for by Kraft, but the Americans were accompanied by Israeli Ambassador to the US Ron Dermer whose goal was to show the Hall of Famers, “the true Israel” and not one depicted in the press.
