Gridiron Greats Billfish Bowl, This awesome fishing tournament will take place February 4th-6th, 2010, at Jimmy Johnson’s Big Chill, a incredible waterfront resort and restaurant located at Fishermans’ Cove Resort in Key Largo, Florida, at mile marker 104. These dates place the event one week after the NFL Pro Bowl and just days before the biggest media event in the world, Super Bowl XLIV. Both the Pro Bowl and the Super Bowl take place in Miami, an hour’s drive north of Key Largo. You can bet that Jimmy’s football buddies in town for the big game will come to Key Largo for some great fishing, rest and relaxation.
Two-time Super Bowl winning Coach Jimmy Johnson chose to use the Billfish Bowl to raise money for a cause close to his heart, and formed a partnership with NFL Hall of Famer Mike Ditka and Gridiron Greats Assistance Fund. A portion of the proceeds from the Billfish Bowl will go directly to the GGAF, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to providing financial assistance and health services to retired football players in dire need.
The Billfish Bowl looks to bring together some of today’s best-known football personalities with Florida’s most competitive and affluent fishing teams for a world-class event.
