The athletes gathered for a night of fun before heading out to the Las Vegas Motor Speedway today for the IZOD IndyCar Series World Championships.
Enthusiastic sports fans congregated outside of the hot spot to get autographs and photos from all-stars like NFL Hall of Famer Michael Irvin, Hockey Hall of Famer Wayne Gretzky, NFL Hall of Famer Warren Moon and NBA All-Star Tracy McGrady.
The athletes were welcomed with cheers and camera flashes as they posed on the red carpet with several IndyCar stars, including Dario Franchitti, Graham Rahal and Jay Howard.
Legendary Los Angeles Dodgers player and manager Tommy Lasorda arrived on the red carpet all smiles and graciously signed autographs for adoring fans.
