Sound the trumpets and rally the troops, the help of the community is needed to help get one of our own towards his date with destiny! On Friday, 18 March 2011, the very next day after St. Patrick’s Day, one week from today, the TCGPlayer.com 10k will be held in Toronto, Ontario. Three of the members of the critically-acclaimed Magic: the Gathering podcast, the Eh? Team will be in attendance. The odd man out?
After the collapse of the Magic Cruise this year, Jay did the right thing and stood by a promise to his wife to take her on a vacation, but it’s left him fiscally shy of being able to attend. This is an injustice of no small proportion as Jay’s given so much to the Magic community with his writing and podcasting, but fortunately it is one that we all can remedy. Some say that virtue is its own reward. They’re right, of course, but it’s even nicer when there are “extras.” Here’s the deal:
Help us get Jay to Toronto!
For those unfamiliar with Canadian geography, it’s much further than he could walk or take his beloved Calgary Transit (@CalgaryTransit) to:
Help get him there by going to PayPal.com and making a contribution. His email address for PayPal is XcrimsonXeclipseX@hotmail.com
So What’s in it for Me?
Besides knowing that you’ve done a solid deed for a friend in need, you’ve got two rewards coming your way!
1. Ad space on Jay’s commemorative t-shirt he’ll be wearing for the duration of the event. Got a website you’d like to advertise? Podcast? Just a friendly greeting, message, or Shout-out? Every donation gets space on the shirt, with size and placement up to Jay Boosh. While we’d love to get this officially done, the lack of time (plus the fact that 100% of the funds raised in this event will be going to Jay’s travel expenses) mean that he’ll do the best he can with what he’s got. It might just be a Black Sharpie on white cotton and an ‘artistic rendering,’ but you will be represented!!
Your logo or message here!!
2. For every $5 you donate, you’ll be entered to win in a raffle! This is just coming together and we expect to add to it, but already we have a prize of a FOIL Blightsteel Colossus. Stay tuned for more prizes as we get them!
That’s it! We know times are tight for everyone right now, but every little bit helps get the Limited Champion of the Casual Flight towards his destiny in Toronto.
With profound gratitude,
The Friends of Jay Boosh
FIRST!
How much would I have to donate to get "I have a small penis" tagged on his shirt ?
I asked him how much it would cost to get him to wear a leafs jersey, he replied infinite, though he was hammered at the time. I also have a very nice white leafs hat and a leafs blanket we can fashion into a cape. Make me an offer boosh.
@potato 25 and you get "i have a small *****" 50 and you get the whole thing
@meth 100 for both?
UPDATE!
for every $5 donated, you get entered into a draw to win special prizes, as of right now (this is to be added to as i pimp myself out) heres what you could WIN!
