us for the crawl and enjoyed food, drinks, hockey and good ol' fun.
Thank you to our venue partners: The Fours, Porter's, and DJ's for helping to make this such a great event. A huge thank you to former Bruins player Bob Sweeney and the Bruins Ice Girls for joining the pub crawl goers for some photos and fun! Everyone's efforts helped to raise a lot of money for The Bruins Foundation and The Cam Neely House and four lucky patrons were proud winners of a Zamboni ride next season, team autographed jersey, team autographed hockey stick, and free Anthem events for the remainder of 2008. This event was a sellout so be sure to purchase your crawl tickets early next year to be a part of an even bigger and better event!

Anthem and the Boston College Athletics Department teamed up to find the best singer in Boston – and did just that. Cary Wells was crowned the winner of the Anthem/Eagles Challenge and received the grand prize of performing the National Anthem at the BC vs. Virginia Tech basketball game on January 26th. Carley Tanchon and Leslie Santiago came in 2nd and 3rd place, respectively and these top 3 contestants will all have the opportunity to sing at upcoming Anthem events. The caliber of the talent pool of over 60 contestants in this series made for the closest singing competition to date.
