Lunch With Legends
On May 11th, around 90 Atlanta Falcons fans were provided a rare treat: an opportunity to listen to three former Falcons greats share stories and candidly answer their questions.
The first annual Falcon Nation Charity Organization (FNCO) Lunch with Legends event featured former Falcons Jessie Tuggle, Jeff Van Note, and Buddy Curry and proceeds from the $40 ticket went to Curry's non-profit organization, Kids & Pros.
"We want to coach kids the correct fundamentals of the game, but also teach them life lessons," said Curry on Tuesday. "Each of us will say any time that what makes us successful today and who we are are the things we learned from playing football. A lot of that comes from coaches growing up to our actual football experience."

Fans in attendance witnessed Curry, a two-time All Pro, Tuggle, a five-time Pro Bowl linebacker and member of the Falcons Ring of Honor, and Van Note, a five-time All Pro and Falcon Ring of Honor member share stories of their playing days and speak about the franchise's current success.
For Curry, it was a unique opportunity to witness three generations of Falcons players sharing their love of football and the Falcons franchise with the team's current fans.
"The neat thing about Falcons fans, many of them have researched the past," said Curry following the event. "The past is a part of the future. Being able to connect with that, I think that's what happened today. It also happened for a great cause. When you have NFL players who are passionate about helping kids and giving back to their communities and you have fans that are willing to support those charities as well as cheer for their current team, I think it's a win-win."
The three former Falcons had the opportunity to entertain questions from the fans on a wide-range of topics from the evolution of the game to their funniest moments as a player.
In many of their comments they reminded fans of one key component of football that has always been the same. "The eye in the sky," as Tuggle deemed game film, doesn't miss anything and it never lies.
It caught Van Note's most embarrassing moment....
