Former San Diego Charger Mark Seay to Present NFL’s Golden Football to San Bernardino High School

In celebration of Super Bowl 50, Stater Bros. “family” member and former NFL wide receiver Mark Seay will present the National Football League’s (NFL) golden football to San Bernardino High School as part of the NFL’s Super Bowl High School Honor Roll. The presentation will take place at 10:30 a.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 26, during an assembly in the school’s auditorium. The Super Bowl High School Honor Roll recognizes high schools and communities that have contributed to Super Bowl history by presenting them with a commemorative Wilson-produced golden football for every player or head coach who has appeared in a Super Bowl. San Bernardino High School joins more than 2,000 high schools to be recognized across the country and around the globe. Additionally, the NFL Foundation will provide the schools with a new character education curriculum and the opportunity to apply for grants of up to $5,000 to help support and grow their football programs. “Having Mark Seay present San Bernardino High School (SBHS) with the golden football demonstrates to our students that attending SBHS is something to be proud of,” commented Antoinette Fulcher-Gutierrez, principal of San Bernardino High School. “When our students see alumni reach their goals, they can then start envisioning themselves doing it as well. This is making hope happen. We’re also excited at the opportunity to receive a scholarship from the NFL Foundation which would allow us to purchase new uniforms, increasing the pride we hold in our hearts for Cardinal City,” Fulcher-Gutierrez added. Seay played football as a wide-receiver for the San Bernardino High Cardinal’s from 1982 – 1985 and went on to play in the NFL for the Philadelphia Eagles and San Diego Chargers. In 1995, he played for the San Diego Chargers in Super Bowl XXIX and entered the Super Bowl record book by catching the first two-point conversion pass in Super Bowl history. Upon retiring from football in 1999, Seay joined Stater Bros.’ public relations department as the company’s community relations representative. In this position, he delivered his personal message of goal-setting and the importance of education. More importantly, Seay served as a role model to over 60,000 students emphasizing that pursuing one’s dreams despite peer-pressure and adversity can be achieved. “I’m honored to be a part of the Super Bowl 50 celebration by giving back to my alma mater, San Bernardino High School,” noted Mark Seay of Stater Bros. Markets. “I’ve been blessed and very fortunate to be a part of NFL history and the Stater Bros. ‘family’; two long-standing organizations committed to the tradition of giving back to the community,” he added.

As America's most famous highway celebrates its centennial in 2026, San Bernardino reflects on the road that helped shape its neighborhoods, businesses and identity.

A city is often judged by what residents experience every day: the condition of its streets, the reliability of public services, the availability of recreational programs and the ease of obtaining information from local government. Behind those everyday experiences are departments and employees whose work rarely attracts national attention.
