PathConnect.com knows how to party! This Friday, February 16, 2007 the thriving online community hosts a handful of celebrities at the Fairmont Hotel in San Jose, CA.

Future Hall of Fame wide receiver Jerry Rice headlines the event; the three-time NFL Super Bowl champion will sign his new book, Go Long!: My Journey Beyond the Game and the Fame.  Rice will be joined by two other top American athletes, Maurice Greene and Ruthie Bolton.

Greene, a two-time Olympic Gold Medalist known as the “world’s fastest man,” is as famous for his flair off the track as he is for his speed on it.  Ruthie Bolton, Gold Medalist in women’s basketball, is a two-time WNBA All-Star with the Sacramento Monarchs.

Also walking the red carpet are Lauren Shihoma, Claudia Jordan and Kasie Head from NBC’s top-rated gameshow, Deal or No Deal. Lauren Shihoma, Case #8, recently appeared in the critically-acclaimed film, Little Miss Sunshine.

Northern California native, Michael “Mikey” Midgely, is another confirmed A-List guest. Mikey was a finalist on the most-recent season of Bravo’s Top Chef. The show achieved record-high ratings during the January 31, 2007 finale.

This party is among a series of PathConnect events taking place across the country. “An ‘A-List’ party is the perfect way to celebrate the success of our site and our members,” explains Ryan Blair, PathConnect’s Founder and CEO. “It’s not everyday you get to shake hands and have a one-on-one conversation with an Olympic Gold medalist or the hottest girls on TV.”
