The skating event, which will be open to the public, will have 100% of the proceeds going to the AJ Terrell Jr. Academy, where the organization intends to double the reach to more than 800 students by 2026. Several of Terrell’s Falcons teammates will be in attendance (as well as special appearances by team mascot, Freddy the Falcon, and the Atlanta Falcons cheerleaders), as well as many notable people from the Atlanta area who are involved in sports, business, and entertainment.

Attendees of Mr. Atlanta’s Roller Ball should expect to see professional roller-skate showcases, open skate sessions with the city’s hottest DJs, southern food, and meet-and-greet opportunities for Connect Pass Holders. There will also be an exclusive Lemon Pepper Lounge for the VIPs.

“Anyone can be Mr. Atlanta because it isn’t a man, it’s a call to action,” says Ashly Cargle-Thompson, Executive Director of the AJ Terrell Jr. Foundation, in a written statement. “Mr. Atlanta stands for Maximizing Resources, Modeling Resilience, Mandating Respect, and Marshaling Renewal, all for the city of Atlanta.”

“AJ embodies everything this city stands for — grit, pride, excellence, and service. He’s not just a football player — he’s a leader in the locker room and a mentor in the community.”
