Former Miami Dolphins football star Ricky Williams watched his career and reputation plummet from marijuana use.
Now, the ex-running back is a national spokesman for cannabis use. Williams is the keynote speaker for the upcoming Southeast Cannabis Conference and Expo.
After spending years as the punchline for pothead jokes, Williams will be a keynote speaker at the Southeast Cannabis Conference and Expo, June 9-11 at the Greater Fort Lauderdale / Broward County Convention Center.
It will be the first large-scale cannabis convention held in South Florida, and is expected to draw thousands of participants.
Williams travels the nation to promote the medicinal benefits of the drug, and believes it can help with concussions and pain management.
Admission to the Fort Lauderdale conference, which will also feature Montel Williams, begins at $50 per day. For information, visit seccexpo.com.
