Please join Derrick Mason, a 15-year NFL Veteran Wide Receiver, as he hosts  “DERRICK MASON & FRIENDS - HOMECOMING 2012”. He will be joined by former and current Tennessee Titans players along with special celebrity guests, for an evening of fun, fabulous food, and football while raising money to benefit MAFIAoZA'S "Godfather Fund" at The Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee and InterFACE Ministries.

Former players include: Eddie George, Frank Wycheck, Kevin Dyson, Blaine Bishop, Brad Hopkins, Erron Kinney, Chris Sanders, Neil O’Donnell, John Thornton, Lance Schulters, Ken Amato, Zach Piller, Joey Kent and Lemanski Hall.

Current players include: Marc Mariani, Jake Locker, Matt Hasselbeck, Chris Johnson, Brett Kern, Michael Griffin, Rob Bironas, Kenny Britt, Will Witherspoon and Lavelle Hawkins. More players will be added in the coming days.

This “fan-friendly” charity event for all ages, was created to gather several former and current NFL players that we all have grown to know and love, since the city first welcomed its favorite professional football team into town. Fans are asked to pull out their favorite team jersey or wear “BLUE” for the evening, to show their local NFL spirit.

Players and their families will serve the guests plus take part in dough tossing contests and pizza making competitions. Additionally, Derrick will lead question/ answer sessions throughout the night, with the fan-favorites that will be on hand. Discussions will include favorite games and memorable moments along with taking questions from fans, as well.

The celebrities will also pose for pictures and sign autographs, while guests have the opportunity to bid on some unique and priceless silent auction memorabilia. Items include authentic signed Eddie George, Keith Bulluck and Derrick Mason game jerseys along with limited edition participant signed game footballs, game worn cleats, gloves and helmets. Signed framed photos, prints and posters will also be available for bidding.
