Walas host Football legend and US Senate hopeful Herschel Walker

The Walas led the charge in arranging a community forum with the legendary football player, Herschel Walker. Herschel Walker is no stranger to Georgia. Walker played college football at the University of Georgia, where he won the Heisman Trophy as a junior. He spent the first three seasons of his professional career with the New Jersey Generals of the United States Football League (USFL) and was the league's MVP during its final season in 1985. After the USFL folded, Walker joined the NFL with the Dallas Cowboys, earning consecutive Pro Bowl and second-team All-Pro honors from 1987 to 1988. In 1989, Walker was traded to the Minnesota Vikings, which is regarded as one of the most lopsided trades in NFL history and credited with establishing the Cowboys' dynasty of the 1990s. He was later a member of the Philadelphia Eagles and New York Giants before concluding his career with a second stint on the Cowboys. Walker was inducted to the College Football Hall of Fame in 1999. Outside of football, Walker was a member of the United States' bobsleigh team at the 1992 Winter Olympics and competed in mixed martial arts (MMA) fights with Strikeforce from 2010 to 2011. Herschel is also a successful businessman with a heart for service. He has most recently been elected as the Republican nominee for US Senate from Georgia to continue his passion for service.

Walas are grateful for his friendship, leadership and his heart for service.
