Isaac Bruce moved with the Rams from Los Angeles to St. Louis in 1995. Now that the Rams are back in LA, Bruce wants to give St. Louis fans one last game at the Edward Jones Dome.

Bruce organized a "Legends of the Dome" flag football game to be played July 23. The game will feature many former Rams from their "Greatest Show on Turf" Super Bowl teams of 1999 and 2001.

Former quarterback Kurt Warner, Hall of Fame offensive lineman Orlando Pace, former linebacker Mike Jones and Hall of Fame defensive back Aeneas Williams are among the "few dozen" players expected to participate. Former coaches Dick Vermeil and Mike Martz will resume their former duties to lead the respective teams. 

"Just thinking about it, it sounded and felt like a good idea," Bruce told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. "And I wanted to give the other guys the opportunity to do the same.

"You know, for 21 years that's the place where we called home. So I wanted to make sure that we were able to say goodbye the right way. Give the St. Louis fans an opportunity to see what they were a part of and say goodbye. And it all worked out. So it's gonna be fun."

Tickets for the event are $15 and $20, with $100 premium tickets that include an opportunity to go on the field for a one-hour autograph session before the game. Tickets go on sale April 21 and all proceeds go to charities in the St. Louis area via the Isaac Bruce Foundation.

"We want to have everybody come out and have an opportunity to do a tailgate again, have another pregame party, after-game party, and just watch some good football," Bruce told the Post-Dispatch. "There's gonna be tons of autographs, people with opportunities to come on the field. I'm sure they'll have their camera phones out and taking pictures. So it'll be a special moment."
