About our NFL Guests

Eagles players Thomas Booker IV and Fred Johnson will join us to spread love in Philly and to support the Eagles Autism Foundation.

Booker (#59) plays defensive tackle for the Eagles. He grew up in Maryland playing three sports in an althletic family. He went on to attend Stanford University and was then a 5th round draft pick in the NFL. He signed to the Eagles in 2023. His activism has also taken him to the White House where he spoke on a panel this summer. Booker likes to unwind by reading and listening to audiobooks.

Johnson (#74) plays offensive tackle for the Eagles. Johnson grew up in Palm Beach and played football for Florida. During his college years, he mentored youth in juvenile detention centers and was honored for his extensive community service. He entered the NFL in 2019 and joined the Eagles in 2022. In 2023, he played in all 17 regular-season Eagles games. Johnson loves the show Friends and his Jersey number honors his late grandfather.

How do the ticket works?

Date Him Philly and Date Her Philly are Facebook groups where people recommend great singles for each other to date. Our in-person events take this concept into the real world! Guests are encouraged to bring a single friend of the opposite sex. You can purchase a “bring a friend of the opposite sex” ticket, which covers both you and your friend OR purchase a solo ticket. This leads to an event filled with singles that you’ll be excited to meet AND their friends who are happy to make introductions for each other.

When purchasing a ticket, you'll be asked to share the full name and email of your friend so that they’ll be added to the guest list.

Who’s hosting?

The Date Philly community was created by local matchmaker, Dara Rahill. She teamed up with fellow Philly matchmaker, Michal Naisteter, and the two began hosting these monthly events for the Philly community. Past events have been featured on local CBS, FOX, and more. Both Dara and Michal are passionate about bringing people together! You can connect with them @dararaematchmaking and @michalmatches.

From there, you'll mix and mingle as you please. We'll have a short fireside chat to hear from Eagles players Thomas Booker and Fred Johnson. Delicious bites will be available for purchase plus a cash bar.
