The event, co-hosted by Fat Cats Live, marked a spectacular evening of success, diversity, and camaraderie. Among the noticeable attendees were Leonardo DiCaprio, Shannon Sharpe, and other high-profile people. The main focus of the night was undeniably on the athletes who graced the occasion.

In a recent article by WGNO, Magic Johnson talks about Mount Rushmore. He says, “Mount Rushmore meant giving honour where honour is due, locally and nationally. And especially during Black History Month, it was a pleasure to raise a glass and toast these incredible individuals. I am grateful for my accomplishments, including becoming the first African American owner of an N.F.L. Team – The Washington Commanders. And I would be remiss if I did not mention the first Black quarterback to start and win the Super Bowl, my friend, Mr. Doug Williams.” Some sources suggest that other A-lister celebrities and athletes will also attend the event.
