INDIANAPOLIS -

The Taste of the NFL drew more than 3,000 people to Gleaners Food Bank on the city's west side for a star-studded fundraiser Saturday night.

Thirty-five chefs from 32 NFL cities served up a delicious evening of food, drink and fun with money going to hunger relief.

People paid $600 a piece to sample the culinary selections and mingle with former NFL players who were paired with the chefs.

The event, known as the Party with a Purpose, has raised $11 million over its 21-year history.

The evening ended with a concert featuring country music star Sara Evans.
