37th annual Great Sports Legends Dinner is a time of reflection for many with tragic racing experiences.
The past and future connect next Monday night, Oct. 24, at New York City’s Marriott Marquis Times Square, when Muldowney will be honored at the 37th annual Great Sports Legends Dinner, a charity gala to benefit the Buoniconti Fund To Cure Paralysis.
She will share the spotlight with motorsports magnate Tony Stewart, who owns, among other properties, the two-car race team featuring Top Fuel’s Leah Pruett and Funny Car’s Matt Hagan. Other honorees Monday will be football’s Edgerrin James, baseball’s Vladimir Guerrero, basketball’s Tim Hardaway, and skiing’s Lindsey Vonn and Sarah Will.
By then, Stewart had had a longtime friendship with Gwynn that includes participation in his annual Hot Rods and Reels Charity Fishing Tournament on the infield lake at the Homestead-Miami Speedway.Muldowney is a three-time Top Fuel champion with 18 victories and is a member of the Motorsports Hall of Fame of America , the International Motorsports Hall of Fame , the Automotive Hall of Fame , and the Michigan Sports Hall of Fame .
The Buoniconti Foundation/The Miami Project grew from the paralyzing college football accident in 1985 to Marc Bouniconti, who was a player for The Citadel. He is the son of the late Nick Buoniconti, the wildly popular linebacker for the Miami Dolphins.
