The coach was buried Wednesday after a day and a half of public viewings. Thousands attended either the viewings for his procession through State College, including dozens of current and former players. Paterno died Sunday morning of lung cancer, weeks after being fired for his role in the Jerry Sandusky scandal. He was 85 years old.
