So, I don't know the "details" because my dad told my mom who told me...but dad and Punky (one of his sisters) were watching (insert name of golfer here) during his practice the other day. He was sitting "so close, as close as I am sitting to you" (he says to my mom) and I tried to take a picture of him. (He does not know how to work the cell phone camera, therefore did not get the picture) So after he sunk the ball my dad says "great shot" the golfer says thanks. My dad says "I have a question for you if you have a moment." Guy says sure. Dad continues to tell him about his son-in-law being a cancer survivor and how we are involved with the RFL for the American Cancer Society and asked would he be interested/willing to donate $ or something to be auctioned to help raise money for our event. Guy says sure, just contact the following......yeah, dad forgot the contact info. He is sure his sister will remember though... This makes me laugh so hard. And really, my dad is always thinking. I wouldn't have thought to stop the random golfer who's wife is battling cancer to make a donation for our Relay, and I am a co-chair! Go dad!
After a little bit of research, I am guessing this golfer was Phil Mickelson. So far, I still haven't heard word on the contact info. Come on Punky!
