The Jason Ackerman Foundation is bringing the glitz and glamour of Mardi Gras from the streets of New Orleans to Tampa with its newest event, Marty Gras. Hockey fans and event attendees will enjoy a rare, off-the-ice evening with Tampa Bay Lightning fan favorite and NHL All-Star, Martin St. Louis. The event will take place today, Wednesday, February 1 from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m. at Ackerman Jewelers in Tampa, Fla.
In addition to photos with the hockey star, the event offers attendees photo opportunities with a real bar of gold and a ring valued at a million dollars. Those attending the event will enjoy food and champagne as well. The event, which is limited to 100 guests, will be a unique, intimate experience for all in attendance.
The Jason Ackerman Foundation is inviting the local media to participate in this special night with St. Louis. For more information on media attendance, please contact executive director of the Jason Ackerman Foundation, Shannon Hannon Oliviero.
