Buffalo, NY (November 7, 2011) – On Tuesday, November 29, Drayton Florence and his Drayton Florence Foundation will host Trivia Time with #29, a trivia contest designed to raise awareness and funds for children of local Buffalo military families who have a parent(s) actively serving our country and defending our freedom this holiday season.
From 7:00 – 10:00 pm, fans can come to Buffalo Wild Wings in Hamburg, NY and test their trivia knowledge with Florence himself as the host. Prizes include a personal meet & greet with the cornerback, autographed items and more. DJ Trivia will handle the trivia contest itself, through local vendor Easton Entertainment.
“I don’t know if we all remember every day what our military families sacrifice for us… that commitment of being away from your family, time, risk, everything that goes into it, especially being away from your spouse and children at the holidays”, said Florence. “That’s what they sign up for and I don’t think we give those people enough credit with what they deal with each and every day.”
The event serves to raise awareness and money to create a Christmas to remember for the very special Buffalo area military families who are without their loved one(s) this holiday season. For an entry fee of just a $20 gift card to Walmart or a $20 donation to the Drayton Florence Foundation, fans can get in on the action, test their knowledge, challenge their friends and enjoy food specials courtesy or Buffalo Wild Wings.
“We couldn’t be happier to support Drayton’s efforts of giving back to our local military families this holiday season,” said Scott Sanford, general manager of Buffalo Wild Wings. “This event is just one small way we can help make the holidays a little more special and a little less lonely for the children of our active military right here in Buffalo.”
Not a trivia fan? Doesn’t matter! Come on out between 6:00 – 11:00 pm on the 29th and 10% of all proceeds at Buffalo Wild Wings over that time period will be donated back to the foundation to support Florence’s holiday efforts. All you have to do is print the below coupon and present it when you arrive to dine!
