Next Weekend: "ESPN The Weekend" Will Feature All-Star Line-Up

     The third annual ESPN special event at Disney-MGM Studios will give sports fans the opportunity to get up-close and personal with many of their favorite athletes and ESPN personalities March 3-5.
     "ESPN The Weekend" will feature on-site ESPN telecasts including SportsCenter, Baseball Tonight and Cold Pizza; star motorcades and Q&A sessions featuring athletes and ESPN personalities; sports shows in the ESPN Theater; live ESPN Radio broadcasts and more. Of course, let's not forget a special sports edition of my favorite game show "Who Wants To Be a Millionaire - Play It!," where guests will have the opportunity to win a Mobile ESPN phone and six months of service.
.      You might say this is an event with personality plus, with more than 30 professional and world-class athletes and many of the most recognizable ESPN television and radio personalities participating. Representatives of the MLB, NBA, NFL and the Olympics are scheduled to appear, including Brian Urlacher (Chicago Bears) and Chad Johnson (Cincinnati Bengals); legend Jerry Rice and other Pro Bowl football players; basketball legends Julius "Dr. J" Erving, Karl Malone and David Robinson; pitchers Roy Oswalt and Andy Pettitte of the defending National League champion Houston Astros; Olympic champions Amanda Beard (swimming) and Dorthy Hamill (figure skating); and perennial X Games stars Bucky Lasek and Mike Metzger.
     Of course, many more celebrities are scheduled to appear throughout the weekend, so if you're an autograph hound, this is a great opportunity! All event activities are included in regular admission to the Disney-MGM Studios theme park
