Vancouver Five Hole For Food 2011 Mainstream Media Game on Granville Street #FHFF
ZOMG. I had SO much fun playing in the mainstream media/celebrity game this afternoon, alongside Dawn Chubai (Breakfast Television), Gillian Shaw (The Vancouver Sun), Hosea Cheung (24 Hours Vancouver), Rhiaz Meghji (Breakfast Television), Erin Loxam (News 1130), Norma Reid (CTV) and many others whose name escape me.
I had a chance to chat with Justin Kripps (Olympian, bobsled) and it was A LOT OF FUN. I was in the team that played against Minna and at some points we fought hard to win control of the ball. I also got to say hi to the main guy behind this, Richard Loat (who also happens to be a friend of mine).
I’m so glad we got to be a part of Five Hole For Food. You can still go and play, donate (remember, monetary donations amount to more food per dollar) and support this great event. And I got to see and smile at Matthew Morrison from GLEE (this was totally serendipitous). And my Mom had a great time meeting everyone.
Richard Loat, Dixon Tam, Phoenix Lam, Crystal Kwon, Joyce Wu and the rest of the volunteers, and all of my supporters and fans (including Esmir Milavic, Conner Galway and many others who just showed up to say “you can do it”) – thank you so much. It was a great experience. And thanks to Gus Fosarolli for being the official photographer of Hummingbird604.com today and my Mom’s official wingman.
You can see how competitive Dawn Chubai and Justin Kripps can get! And below, supporter Conner Galway keeps a close look on how well (or bad) we’re playing!
I *almost* look like I know what I’m doing, don’t I? 
The rest of my photos (well, Gus’ photos) is on my Flickr stream.
