DALLAS, TX -- Ladies, grab your gowns. Gentlemen, grab your tuxes. The stars are out tonight! It’s time for the annual Emmitt Smith Celebrity Invitational!
The night began with a VIP red carpet, followed by a celebrity reception, dinner and a live auction. Comedian and entertainer Broderick Rice rocked the mic as the emcee for the party while American Idol superstar Chris Daughtry graced the crowd with a live performance.
Pat and her NFL all-time leading rusher husband, Emmitt, played host to the star-studded event at the Omni Hotel. The gala has raised millions of dollars in support for Pat and Emmitt Smith charities, funded summer camps, after school programs, college tuition, and it doesn't stop there!
The elite couple will also presented the Roger Staubach award to Dr. Phil and Robin McGraw for their incredible work helping women and children across the globe.
Trophies and rewards will fade, and can be forgotten, but giving to others will always live on.
