Zach deserved this forever ago. Glad he's in.

"Hey honey, Joe Namath came to lunch!" I loved Joe Klecko's reaction. Congratulations to all the Class of 2023 Hall of Famers!

Joe Thomas' son saying thank you for picking my dad is heart warming

[Dallasboy]

I’m a grown man….stuff like this and the Pro Football Hall of Fame induction ceremony always make me cry. 😢

DeMarcus Ware looked like he was gonna pass out. You could see how much the honor meant to this man. 💯

[selfproclaimedintrovert]

Zach Thomas coming up the stairs and realizing what was happening gets me right in the feels. Congratulations Zach!

[eddiedelgado]

D ware was such an anchor for Dallas and Denver. as a Broncos fan, I'm happy he got his ring and now he gets his recognition. He was a true captain who helped mentor a young Von Miller.

[WorldwideWyatt]

All of these men were deserving, but I’m glad to see Zach Thomas finally getting his proper recognition. He was an incredible player and he should have been in on the first ballot.

[tiperik]

So happy Zach got in! He’s been waiting for too long.

Not gonna lie I couldnt hold back my tears. Thank you for the memories Zach, it was fun. Well Deserved. Fins Up

[victorcornelius]

Demarcus Wares reaction was icing on the cake.Humble, genuine, .Hes a class act.And he desrves it

[AlphaSpaz]

Love seeing Jimmy Johnson getting emotional about giving the news also.

[ColdBloodedProd]

Ronde at the end was special as a Bucs fan.

“We’re teammates forever man.”
“You can’t get rid of me”

[aubreychinners]

Seeing/hearing Jimmy Johnson get choked up while telling Zach he finally made it after Jimmy made it a point to talk about how deserving Zach was of the HoF in his own HoF speech just a few years ago is priceless.

However it's long overdue, congrats ZT54 on a phenomenal career

I got chills with Joe Klecko and Joe Namath. As a Jets fan, these types of moments don’t come very often if at all. J-E-T-S, Jets, Jets, Jets…

Seeing Chuck Howley, part of the original Doomsday Defense, SBV MVP( the only MVP on a losing team), and one heck of a guy getting told by his teammate Roger Staubach he’s in the Hall of Fame is just great. Congratulations to all HOF 2023!

[TheShufflinJesus]

As a Cowboys fan see Ware get in feels amazing. As a football fan to see Zach Thomas and Klecko finally get chosen makes a grown man tear up

[jg]

I balled my eyes out when Zach got his call. I cried in absolute joy. This was overdue for Zach. He busted his ass for the Dolphins and us Phin fans during a lot of "down years", and he never complained and never cheated us. An all-time great LB ... a classic "underdog" story ... and now one of the greatest Phins of all-time! I cant wait to go to Canton for his induction!

[JoelElRican]

Rondé Barber finally getting his gold jacket. The fact that Brooks was the one who gave him the news, made it so much sweeter. Congratulations to Tampa Bay's Iron Man!

[CapnRiggsk]

Zach Thomas' reaction made me cry too! He deserved it for so long and to see him finally get a gold jacket is truly special
