vladdy16 2,154 Report post Posted April 24, 2012 This is the paypal address? It is. Im only in $5 for the Tuzzi fight. Sent $20 Thanks for doing this again, this is my favorite part of the playoffs now. Very cool! Thanks so much for pledging. Just sent you $25, even though I was only in for $11. Thanks for organizing - next year will be better! Yeah, I'm really hoping to clean you guys out one of these days. I can't thank everyone enough for being a part of this. 1 Vladifan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rrasco 1,312 Report post Posted April 24, 2012 I needed a few days to collect myself before finally admitting to myself it was over. Pledges fulfilled. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vladifan 680 Report post Posted April 24, 2012 (edited) My check really is in the mail, as of this morning. We'll hope for more wins and more moolah next year. Thanks again, Vladdy16, for being willing to back this! Edited April 24, 2012 by Vladifan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peadydog 98 Report post Posted April 24, 2012 Vladdy16- Please let us know the final once you've collected from everyone. At least we can feel good about something this playoff year! And remember... They spring to the ice, as the referees whistle, In pursuit of the Cup they will fly like a missile. And the fans will exclaim, whether they lose or they win, “Go, Red Wings! We Love You! What a great year it’s been!” Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vladdy16 2,154 Report post Posted April 25, 2012 I absolutely will post the total once it's in. We won't get close to last year's total, but then again, neither did the Wings. Kind of fitting this year's donation is going to Mr. I. I failed to ask everyone to put their screen name in their PayPal payment; some did, but some didn't. If you didn't, could you please PM me and let me know how much you sent so I can match the name with it? Those yet to send payment, please include it. Mille grazie. So far I know 55fan, Rick D, troubadour and rrasco. Peadydog I figured out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for organising, one of these years I hope I'll have to actually break the piggybank just to meet my pledge. 1 Rick D reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for organising, one of these years I hope I'll have to actually break the piggybank just to meet my pledge. I think we were all hoping to spend a lot more this year. I'm still pissed. Anyway, pledge received, thank you very much. Here's my list of PIFs: 55fan Rick D troubadour rrasco Peadydog Cevari Vladifan Motown4013 The Xym Still waiting on a couple more before I can send.

TheXym 2,606 Report post Posted April 27, 2012 (edited) My money order for $26.75 (1 win by Howard @ $1.00 and 103 saves @ $0.25) just went in the mail. Edited April 27, 2012 by TheXym Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheXym 2,606 Report post Posted May 1, 2012 I know my money order arrived. I'm just curious as to how much the total donation was, as every little bit helps for a good cause. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vladdy16 2,154 Report post Posted May 1, 2012 I don't have a total yet - I'm waiting on one more donation. I can tell you we went over $200! 1 Peadydog reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vladdy16 2,154 Report post Posted May 3, 2012 I was going to go ahead and send in the donation in spite of waiting on one more since they haven't responded to my PM, but I think I might kick in a little sumpin' sumpin' if Nashville loses the series to Phoenix, so I'm holding out for now if that's okay with everyone. 2 Vladifan and Peadydog reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vladdy16 2,154 Report post Posted May 7, 2012 I'm betting the Preds are going to lose, so I called in the donation to Ilitch Charities from the Paypal account; checks go in the mail tomorrow. Our grand total is $264.39. Way to go, LGW! Very nice amount, especially considering the limited opportunities to pad the bill. Again, thanks so very much to all who participated. Hopefully next year I'll take you all for a lot more money. 3 rrasco, 55fan and Vladifan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vladdy16 2,154 Report post Posted May 22, 2012 Okay, here's my chuckle for the day. I received a notice from PayPal saying they needed to verify my SSN for my PayPal account. Don't know why, I've had it for years and used it for all LGW functions since about 2006. Whatever. But the donation to Ilitch Charities hadn't gone through. I get embarrassed thinking they've processed the donation and it didn't go through. I transfer the money to my bank account so I can call in and use my own debit card. I call in to apologize for any issues and give them my debit card number. Stephanie tells me that the transaction has not been processed yet because they need to investigate and approve the donation!!! Seriously? It needs to be investigated because of the way it was received. That's all she would tell me. I gave her the heads-up that I would need to give a new CC number and gave her my cell to call me when the donation gets approved. LMAO. Those who wrote checks: Have they been cashed?
