How cool is this!? Bright Pink asked me if I’d lead a ride with trainer and instructor extraordinaire Michael Wollpert to benefit the charity. No brainer. Bright Pink, Flywheel Spin and Michael are three of my favorite things.

If you want to ride with us- it’s only 25 dollars (the price of a normal drop in rate) and the cash all goes to Bright Pink!

It’s on Wednesday August 22 at 7:30pm at the downtown Chicago location.

To join- book your bike here.

 

Ball So Hard

me, Jen, Shannon, Michelle, and Meggy Fox (who crafted the shirts)

We came, we bowled, we conquered. Or some other cliche- whatever…we had fun.

Thanks a million to Eric Bolf and Dez Clark for giving CelebTV a lane at his 88 Pinz Foundation event last night.

baller status!

We were teamed up with Google (my college buddy and former MSU baller Jason Andres happened to play on my team!!), Laurence Holmes (Score radio dj) and David Diaz (pro fighter).  And we had a total blast- everyone took a turn at bowling and we cheered each other on no matter how bad we were.

Victor giving it his all

I chatted with Brian Urlacher but chickened out when it came time to ask if he’ll be at Jenny McCarthy’s event tomorrow…guess it will have to be a surprise.

Jerry Azumah met our crew and Robbie Gould bet me a dollar he would beat me (he did-by a lot.)

Zoom Nation!

In the end, it was a really fun way to bond out of the office and I’m so glad we went.*

Strike!

Most people think my idea of an ideal night is going to a fancy restaurant or the Opera or some bougis party.

They would be wrong.

One of my favorite ways to spend an evening or rainy day is: BOWLING.

My love for the lanes started back in 2003 when I worked at NFL Network and we’d go bowling as a staff all the time. I didn’t know very many people in LA at the time so the staff was like family to me, and they never made fun of my numerous gutter balls. *

I LOVE the idea of bowling as a charity event. It’s something almost everyone can do, and it really brings people together and forces conversation amongst strangers.

Tomorrow night I’m bowling in Jerry Azumah’s ASAP Foundation event- and I LOVE this night. Jerry draws a really fun crowd and we always manage to have lots of laughs and raise $$.

Me and Jerry AzumahRasheed Davis teaching me how to NOT get the ball in the gutter at last year’s event. (note to self- don’t wear that same jacket tomorrow)

If you’d like to bowl in his event there is still time- check out the link:

Next Tuesday the CelebTV staff is bowling in Dez Clark’s event. We are ready to represent and we’re really hoping Urlacher brings his new gf Jenny McCarthy!

Come roll with us… details are below:

It’s the perfect time to rub elbows with Chicago Bears and local celebs, plus you can pick up some sweet silent auction gear for Father’s Day, Birthday’s and the sports fans in your life. Not to mention- these things are a blast.

Hope to see you there…someone needs to witness my STRIKES!*
