Prominent Alumni
In 2004, Vince Papale, a native of Glenolden, Pennsylvania, was inducted in the Interboro hall of fame. He played three seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles, and was only an inspiration for the 2006 movie Invincible which very little followed Vince's "real" life. Vince actually was a long term substitute for Interboro when his Eagles opportunity came about. Unlike the movie, he was a bartender in the small town of Prospect Park in Delaware County rather than in the city of Philadelphia.

Famous quotes containing the word prominent:
“The tremendous outflow of intellectuals that formed such a prominent part of the general exodus from Soviet Russia in the first years of the Bolshevist Revolution seems today like the wanderings of some mythical tribe whose bird-signs and moon-signs I now retrieve from the desert dust.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
