BEAT ALS presents THE CHRIS JOHNSON STORIES—an intimate night celebrating Chris Johnson’s unforgettable 2007 season at East Carolina and the year that opened the door for back-to-back championships.
Told by Skip Holtz, CJ’s teammates and coaches, the evening will revisit the moments that changed the direction of ECU football—from the breakthrough win over North Carolina to CJ’s showcase performance in the Hawai‘i Bowl.
The program will combine never-before-heard stories, memorable game footage and photography from the 2007 season, along with a special performance by Matt Stillwell.
The evening will also demonstrate the mission of BEAT ALS through a special mobility presentation made possible by Permobil—connecting sports, music, storytelling and relationships to create hope for ALS warriors and their families.
