Con Hunley - Game On Against Cancer, Games & Things

2013 GAME ON AGAINST CANCER

	GAME ON AGAINST CANCER March 1, 2013 It's that time of year again...time to help a great cause and have a little fun at the same time! It's the second annual Game On Against Cancer to benefit patient programs through the Thompson Cancer Survival Center in Knoxville. The money directly assists cancer patients with immediate incidental needs like wigs, transportation, food, and lodging via The Thompson Cares Fund and The Fellowship Center.
	In the Game On event, guests purchase tickets that entitle them to food, drinks and the opportunity to play games against their favorite celebrity. There are close to 30 celebrities who donate their time for the friendly competition. Con had so much fun with Blackjack last year, he signed up for the game again this year.
	"Con"templating his strategy ...what would Carnac the Magnificent do?
	Win or lose, it's a good time for everybody! After his time at the Blackjack table, Con's got to make his way over to his next event - Corn-hole.
	Both of Knoxville's Honorable Mayors, Knox County Mayor Tim Burchett and Knoxville Mayor Madeline Rogero, were on hand to support this worthy cause.

	In addition to money raised from admission and games, the event also raises money through an on-site auction. A variety of items can be found up for bid - beauty products, sports memorabilia, gaming equipment, furniture, weekend get-aways and more. Con and IMMI Records donated Con's Music Library and t-shirts. Not only that, but the winning bidder and a guest gets to luncheon with Con at one of his favorite Knoxville restaurants, Litton's. Pretty cool prize, huh?
	Con stops for a quick picture with fellow Corn-holer Missy Kane, left, and friends. Missy won a bronze medal in the 1983 Pan American Games and is now Knoxville's premier Health and Fitness guru.
	Knox County Mayor Tim Burchett gives Con some pointers before the match begins.
	One of Con's favorite golf sayings applies here, too..."*Get in the hole*!"
	Did you see that?... It went in!!
