Kids Free Days are set for Thursday and Friday, June 15 & 16, when youngsters 15 & under can get in at no cost. Also, on June 15, the day before the Cleveland Browns mini-camp begins, fans will be able to meet a collection of past and current Browns players, including Hall of Fame wide receiver Paul Warfield, a member of the 1964 NFL championship team. Present day Browns expected to attend include Reuben Droughns, Nick Eason, Steve Heiden, Lee Suggs, Brian Russell, Andrew Hoffman, Chaun Thompson and Andra Davis. Also just joining this group is Browns first round draft-pick Kamerion Wimbley.

Some of the headline athletes featured at the Festival include perhaps the greatest running back in NFL history, the legendary Jim Brown, who will be appearing on Saturday, June 17. Joining Brown at the autograph pavilion that day will be former Browns great Clay Matthews, and the MVP from the 1964 title game, receiver Gary Collins, in a very rare public appearance. Also appearing will be former Brown Mike Pruitt, Greg Pruitt and Hall of Famer Ozzie Newsome. Former New York Giants great Mark Bavaro will also be on hand.

Other football stars coming to the Festival include such headliners as Joe Theismann (who led the Redskins to victory over Miami in Super Bowl XVII), Deion Sanders, Brian Bosworth, Ahman Green, Rocky Bleier, Charlie Joiner, Cris Carter, Len Dawson, Lofa Tatupa and his father Mosi Tatupu, Archie Griffin, Pepper Johnson, Howard "Hopalong" Cassady, Greg Lloyd and Ickey Woods.

Former Bowling Green quarterback Omar Jacobs (Steelers, 5th round 2006), Pittsburgh Steelers No. 1 draft pick and former Ohio State star Santonio Holmes (wideout) and Indianapolis No. 1 pick Joseph Addai, a running back from LSU will attend and give fans a look into the future as well.

General admission tickets for the public are priced at $12 in advance, and $15 on the date of the event. A special daily VIP package is available ($39 for Thursday or Friday and $99 for Saturday/Sunday) as well as a Super VIP package ($149 for all four days).
