    You don't have a clue. How many times does someone have to tell you what PBF does isn't uncommon here for athletes. I've gone to several celebrity weekend functions and all have been on point and all have donated to good causes.:-( You just refuse to give the man the benefit of the doubt.

    Floyd has been handing out food and warm clothing during the holiday season here in Grand Rapids for the last 10 years; so I guess you might as well deem any charity by a notable athlete "for show."

    As far as these weekends; hes been hosting concerts here since 2003 from what I can remember. Grand Rapids is a pretty looked over destination as far as tours go so hes doing musics fans a favor by bringing artists here through personal relationships.

    I don't expect you to understand any of this because it's like me talking about Junior Witter bringing The Streets to Hertfordshire or some random English town. A.K.A. SOMETHING I DON'T KNOW A ****ING THING ABOUT

    It's good that he's doing something in the community but everything got an admission charge.

    It would be nice if a least something was free for the fans.

    It's fund raising event. What would be the point of having free events at a fund raising event?

    He's possibly doing it to where, each celeb he has there will match or double the live gate of people that came. So if 2500$ worth of people came and payed.

    Each celeb will match or double that. Etc etc.

    That's the problem, everything is a fund raising event. No one does anything out of true generosity.
