63 different families were in attendance for Sunday's game vs the Panthers -- one family for every Rams player.

The families got to light the torch at the Coliseum, watch the game, and even attend a Rams practice earlier in the week.

Each family was also paired with one player, and received pictures, an autographed helmet, and most importantly, some one-on-one time just to talk.
