ROC the Day's page says that they received 10,069 donations and raised $875,000. That number was just over $635,000 when the clock ran out. There must have been some sort of matching contribution challenge that was added afterward to raise it to an even $875,000.
I know Lollipop Farm had two people that were going to match dollar for dollar donations up to $10,000 each. |

http://myfox8.com/2012/12/11/florida-tackling-python-problem-with-hunting-contest/ Story and ewww pic! A grand prize of $1,500 will be awarded to the person who kills the most pythons, and $1,000 will go to the person who bags the longest one. According to the rules, road kill will not be eligible. The largest Burmese python ever found in Florida — its 17 foot, 6-inch carcass weighed 164.5 pounds — was harvested in the Everglades in August. Researchers at the University of Florida found 87 eggs inside the snake. The largest prey, Friar told CNN, was a 76-pound deer that was found in the stomach of a 16-foot python a few months ago. I can't say it enough-I HATE snakes, any size, any kind! |
