John Legend, Kentucky football's NIL collective teaming up for members-only event in May
Kentucky football is finding creative ways to bring in more money through NIL deals.
One of the Wildcats' NIL collectives, The 15 Club, announced a new VIP membership program called "500 Strong."
This membership level comes with exclusive perks, including "An Evening with John Legend."
The event is scheduled from 6:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. May 10 at the Central Bank Center.
Legend has UK ties; Anthony Brown-Stephens, his nephew, is a sophomore wide receiver on the Wildcats.
"We are excited to launch the 500 Strong Membership Program within The Kentucky 15 Club," Ryan Miller, CEO of The Kentucky 15 Club, said in a news release. "This initiative represents a unique opportunity for fans to engage with the University of Kentucky Football Program in a meaningful way while enjoying unforgettable experiences. 'An Evening with John Legend,' presented by Lexus of Lexington, is just the beginning of what promises to be an exciting journey for our members."
