On Jan. 11, SPORT Restaurant and Bar will host 150 guests as they’re treated to a special Texas-style Super Bowl-themed dinner (menu designed by Howie), music by The Craig Terrill Band, surprise local celebrity guests and spirited live and silent auctions featuring Seahawks memorabilia and exclusive experiences.

With every $1 raised, Food Lifeline can provide 5 nutritious meals.
