-- The MacDaddy Invitational Tournament is being held by Shawn
MacDaddy Meyers teammates and friends to honor him and to raise
money for a trust fund to benefit his 8-year-old daughter, Nicole.
This Online RavenShield 5v5 Team Survival event starts Saturday,
September 18th with an entry fee of $30 per team. Every dime raised
goes directly into a trust fund, says Scott BigJake Moore, friend
and teammate of Meyers who is spearheading this tournament.
Sponsors will be donating prizes. Moore explained, Mac was very
close to his daughter. He would go on and on about how much she
meant to him. Her future and her life were his primary concern and
we made that our main concern as well. According to Moore, Meyer
was playing a public PC game online with a few teammates when he
complained of a terrible headache and left to go to the doctor.
Later the team found out he was in critical condition at the
hospital. Meyer was kept on life support to allow friends and
family the chance to say goodbye. Meyer died of a brain aneurysm on
July 26th at Mercy Hospital in Bakersfield, California. Services
were held at Christ Cathedral in Bakersfield on July 30th. Meyers
team, Appetite for Destruction, (A4D) has already raised over
$2,600 and would like to reach a goal of $6,000 for the trust fund,
which will be governed by a board of seven people including two of
Nicoles family members and five team members from A4D, says Moore.Related News:
