Taken from the official press release:
Vibe Magazine has announced that Dallas Cowboys’ 7X Pro Bowler DeMarcus Ware will be featured at the OFFICIAL VIBE MAGAZINE kick-off party at Cuda Lounge by Barracuda Networks on Wednesday,
February 1st. VIBE MAGAZINE will roll out the green carpet for an all-star lineup of
athletes, celebrities and recording artists. Expected attendees include: Tony Gonzalez,
Warren Moon, Brandon Marshall, Shawne Merriman, Vince Young, Bernard Berrian,
Chris Johnson, Willie McGinest, Hue Jackson and many more. Doors open at 8pm
and the evening will wrap at 3am. The newly renovated Cuda Lounge by Barracuda
Networks is located in the heart of Super Bowl Village at 141 South Meridian Street.
"We are thrilled to host the Cuda Lounge in this year's Super Bowl Village," said
Michael Perone, cofounder, EVP and CMO of Barracuda Networks. "It is especially
exciting to be in Indianapolis on the heels of our announcement of the new Barracuda-
Bryan Herta Autosport IndyCar team, and we look forward to a great week of sports
and entertainment with our customers and partners."
Proceeds from the Grandstand Sports auction, with items including luxury
vacations, authentic sporting items, and more will benefit DeMarcus Ware’s
charity of choice, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, whose mission is to
advance cures, and means of prevention, for pediatric catastrophic diseases through
research and treatment. Consistent with the vision of our founder Danny Thomas, no
child is denied treatment based on race, religion or a family's ability to pay.
