Demolish Hunger

Mostly everyone wants to see the New Haven Coliseum fall to the ground in a cloud of dust and smoke (those who don’t, really have no say anymore- have you seen the giant hole in the building?).

But when it is all said and done, not everyone will be able to say, “I blew up the Coliseum.” and not sound crazy. The good news is that with a little generosity and luck, you can be the one to say it and mean it.

You have nine(9) days to give six(6) canned goods or non-perishable food items to the Connecticut Food Bank. This will enter you into the coolest raffle I have ever heard of.

If they pick you, you get to push the ceremonial plunger (think cartoon-style Acme demolition device) that will bring the building crashing down. What a great idea for a food drive. Everyone wins.

Oh, and you get a personalized seat from the Coliseum, although, I’m not sure why you would want it. Probably pretty greasy after 30 or so years.
