Looks like it did.
Didn't get a message or anything. Could just be catching the wrong Admin
Someone else's turn. It's a worthy cause

Beau, be on the lookout for an email from KATC.

Admins may be willing to let this one slide but don't want to openly advertise it. They haven't taken down the link from the OP so that gives me the feeling they're looking the other way but don't want to allow any more
Imma be on TV, me!

I know a TON of people watch his streams. I've seen the numbers.
It's the best way to watch. Hell, I'd have gladly paid for it. This is my way to.
I remember the first time I found the stream, I thought "what is this weird arse shite!?"
But I came to love it. Better than commercials for tampons and Aids medication during a game

We need to find a way to get even more views on the whole post and situation to help this great but struggling father out.

I've been on TD for many years and when a fellow member is in need, I'll damn sure help out.
Let your Pops know the TD Community has your back. Go Tigers/Roll Tide!

If you know any baseball fans that have watched his feed...reach out and let them know...here's a chance to give back.
Just like singles and doubles lead to runs scored, we don't have to have a bunch of grand slams (though they are nice)
Just a bunch of hits. Big, small, or past the wall, every one counts.
But now now, just swing baws and Bawettes.
Batters up!

Why did the amount go from14 to 24?

Might be so the campaign can stay open? Not sure though
Pretty awesome that over $15k has been raised in ~36 hours

Because the original number would allow an...well it was an option that might work...but not a good option, and then there's other costs involved just getting that particular one here.
The extra money allows us to find an actually good option.
And also, possibly allowing us to help get a better long term solution for the family.

GofundMe automatically increases the goal when the amount nears the previous goal amount as a standard practice.

Like this? That must have been painful, and kinda gross.
Most of us just used the go-fund-me. It was quick and easy. But I guess puke money works too

There's $3.50 in your pocket,
In your couch or on your floor,
Three bucks and some change is rockin'
But let's dig a little more,
You'd spend thirty five in drive-thrus,
But that won't fill up your soul,
Put three fifty somewhere better,
And help this old man to roll!
Well I've watched a lot of baseball,
And ain't paid for one game yet,
So when I start adding numbers,
We'll I'm really in his debt,
And so many Special Friends,
I bet they're a lot like me,
Think my cheddar serves him better,
I'll send my Three Fifty, Me.
Please stop with all this weird poetry. I want to like you but you make it impossible

What a sad but inspiring story. It makes us remember that many aren't so well off and those of us that are better off can help. Also, as another posted he wished he could have Zelled some money to the family. They posted a Gmail account that could be used for Zelle if the OP has a back account. I don't like giving the middleman, Go Fund Me, anything.
