Cerza will also serve the totality wings on Monday at Highmark Stadium, home of the Buffalo Bills, for #SeeThe716Eclipse.
The event, organized by Buffalo-area ophthalmologist Dr. Ephraim Atwal, will raise awareness of eye-care health and raise money for the Kelly for Kids Foundation.
The foundation was founded by Buffalo sports legend and Pro Football Hall of Fame quarterback Jim Kelly. It serves disadvantaged and disabled youth in Western New York.

Kelly also founded Hunter’s Hope, to raise awareness and research dollars for Krabbe Disease and Leukodystrophies.
It is named for Jim and Jill Kelly’s son, Hunter, who died at age 8.
"Jim Kelly eclipsed every known Buffalo Bills passing record," restaurateur Santora told Fox News Digital.
