Hi All,

I hope this isn't a repeat, but even if it is it's for a good cause so I don't feel too bad :) . but I just received this press release from my good friend, Samm Diep and wanted to share it with my friends on this forum. Hopefully this will help The Billiard Education Foundation (BEF) meet their fundraising goals and a lucky AZer will win a cool iPad (my wife is making me donate for that chance :rolleyes:), plus you get to guess the outcome of the US Open:

Thanks,
Dave

Bumping this to the top since the contest is only available until Monday morning.

Sorry, was out with the kiddos doing fall stuff all day.

Thanks again to everyone who has donated so far, and to Dave G. for the bumps!!!

Since there are clearly some very popular choices, we will be allowing duplicate guesses (in an effort to raise as much funds as possible). However, we'll also need the score of the runner-up in the finals in the event of a tie-breaker. If more than one person guessed the same names, the person with the closest score (without going over) will receive the prize of the iPad mini.

Please help spread the word about this contest and help us reach our goal of raising $5,000 this weekend.
