Five Heisman winners pose together at Hard Rock
Talk about your Mount Rushmore of college football: Here are five college football Heisman winners who gathered at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino for a charity event.

Torretta hosted his “Celebrity Charity Blue Tee Weekend” last week to raise money for ALS Research.
The events consisted of a private party in the Plum Lounge at the Seminole Hard Rock Casino, a celebrity charity poker tournament at the Poker Room in Seminole Paradise and a celebrity charity golf tournament at Jacaranda Country Club in Plantation.
NICK SORTAL began playing 3-card "gut" and "Indian poker" on high school band trips, moved on to "night baseball" and "pass the trash" during a Dr. Pepper-infused midnight game in the 1980s at the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, and now play in a regular neighborhood Hold 'Em game in Plantation. I have been given the assignment of writing about the gambling life in South Florida casinos for the Sun-Sentinel...which means sitting around watching poker on TV now counts as research.
