Al's Run .. here we go.

Written by: hilltopper91@gmail.com (Kevin Buckley)

It's that time again.  Well, actually it's past that time.  Al's Run is under two weeks away, October 10th, moved back a few weeks from its usual date.


Last year was a monster success, as Marquette Basketball fans raised $4,430 for the cause.  We've been raising money for four years running, setting a new record each year.

We sucked so much money out of the economy last year, raising money for Al's Run,  Lehman Brothers failed.

This year?  Well, we don't want to over-reach.  Last year was special, with lots of big donations.  Let's start with a goal of $1,977, and work our way upwards.

Cracked Sidewalks doesn't sell you stuff here, we don't even show you advertisements, we just give you pure Marquette Basketball goodness.

All we ask for is a few bucks every year, for Al's Run. 

So do us a solid, and pony up a few bucks, put a little something something in the tip jar. It all goes to a great cause, Children's Hospital of Wisconsin. Sure, some will pledge $25, $50 .. but imagine if all our loyal readers gave FIVE measily bucks? Bingo, that's $10k.

So, click here, whip our your credit card and pay your respects to Al, and Marquette:  http://www.firstgiving.com/MarquetteFans

Is Buzz Williams the honorary spokesperson?

I don't think so .. haven't seen his name on any of the ads for Al's Run.

.. Zoom, almost at $400 in the first 2 hours of begging fundraising.

Looks like fundraising is well on its way to another successful year. I'm glad to have given my $19.77 to the cause. I need to make it up there for the race one of these years.
