Cowboy Basketball to Join Celebrity Waiter Night
July 18, 2007 | Cowboy Basketball
Coach Sean Sutton, the assistant coaches, several former Cowboy Basketball players, Dave Hunziker, Pistol Pete, and Joe and Buffy will serve as celebrity waiters during Joe's Anniverary Week and Tuesday will has been designated as “Scream Your Team” Night.
In addition to these celebrity waiters, the evening will include the chance to bid on unique OSU items via a silent auction. Auction items include:
• an autographed Coach Eddie Sutton bobblehead;
• a book autographed by Coach Henry Iba;
• a basketball autographed by Desmond Mason;
• an opportunity to attend an OSU men's team practice and the Coach Sean Sutton radio show immediately afterward (hosted by Dave Hunziker);
• a football autographed by Coach Gundy;
• a framed Coaches vs Cancer T-shirt signed by Coach Eddie Sutton;
• a basketball signed by the OSU Cowgirl Basketball team.
Also available is the opportunity to have pictures taken with these celebrities (photography compliments of Party Pix). The OSU Coaches vs Cancer campaign ranks first in the High Plains Division, first in the Big 12, and third nationally in dollars raised. The OSU Coaches vs. Cancer committee and former Head Coach Eddie Sutton have been nationally recognized for their fundraising efforts and Eskimo Joe's has been instrumental in the success of the campaign.
In the past four years, over $500,000 has been raised to aid in the fight against cancer. Since 2004, Eskimo Joe's has donated over $80,000 to the Coaches vs. Cancer campaign. A new T-shirt, of which a portion of the proceeds will be donated to Coaches vs. Cancer, will be unveiled in the fall of 2007.
