IRON BOWL FIGHT SONG CHALLENGE

Some of you may know, the Literacy Council building in Birmingham burned. My good friend and notorious barner over at College and Magnolia, Auburn's sbn site, was tasked with raising money to rebuild. I promised him $500 to wear a Bama cap for the entire Iron Bowl. He agreed, but we decided to take the project bigger. Blake enlisted Matt Scalici, sports director at AL.com, so this is the deal.

Blake will sing Yea, Alabama in the most ridiculous Bama getup I can find at a tailgate, on video, if Bama folks contribute the most to rebuilding. Matt will do the same in Auburn gear if we fail.

Why should you help? If you are reading this, someone cared enough to teach you how. That's what these folks do. I've been involved with the Literacy Council for awhile; they do good things.

Below is the link to Blake's blog with instructions on how to help if you can.

Thanks, and Roll Tide everybody!

Ells. Scalici. The Fight Song Challenge.

The skinny:

1. Visit alliteracycouncil.wordpress.com. There, you will find a "Donate" button which will take you to Paypal where you can make a donation to the campaign in any amount that you like at or above $10.

2. [UPDATED] The payment link has been moved to Paypal, so I am going to need you to tweet, text, call or email me and make sure I know which side you are putting your money on. If you are seeing this, chances are you know some way that you can communicate a message to me.

[UPDATED AGAIN] On second inspection, there may be a spot on Paypal for you to list this Designation info. In either case, just make sure I am aware of which side you are donating for. Amount is not necessary – they’ll be able to look your name up in the system.

[UPDATED AGAIN AGAIN] We have had a donation since the switch, and there IS a portion of the Paypal process for a "Message." That’s where you need to let us know which side is getting your money. Or tell me. Either way. Good? Good.

MAKE SURE YOU COMPLETE THIS PART OR WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO COUNT YOUR DONATION TOWARD THE COMPETITION.

3. That’s it!

Tell your friends, tell the message boards…whatever. Matt and I want to raise as much money as we can for a good cause, and I’m fortunate that he’s agreed to challenge me here. War Eagle, and Roll Tide.
