2010 ESPN ESPY Awards – Los Angeles CA

Rocket Sports & Entertainment

On Wednesday Night July 14^th the Annual 2010 ESPY Awards were held at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles. Once again I think ESPN did a fantastic job with this annual event. I think it gives the athletes of the world a time to say, “we can do it too Hollywood”. It is so great to see all the athletes dressed up outside of their work

uniforms. Although Tampa did not fare well in the awards we certainly had great representation, Tampa’s Erin Andrews looked absolutely stunning. And think, she might be sports fan… cool huh? Go Erin!
