Around SBN: Ellenberger vs. Sanchez Heats Up, Hughes Talks Retirement

A New/Old Baseball Documentary

Greetings ANers,

Some who've been around this site for a while will remember this film and me posting about it from 2004-2006. I went underground during the past two years to retool several things and focus the marketing effort -- and it's paid off:

"Boys of Summer", an award-winning documentary about my father (who has Parkinson's Disease) and I attempting to road trip 20,000 miles in two months to see a game at each of the 30 Major League Ballparks (on less than a shoestring budget) will screen from Sept. 5th through the 11th in Las Vegas.

Now I know Las Vegas isn't local to most of you, but if there are any other ANers livin' in Sin (City), I hope you'll come to a showing during that time period. More than a few ANers have seen and enjoyed it including Blez, baseballgirl and devo amongst others. Also, if you'd like to have this film screen closer to where you are, it's the "Field of Dreams" sort of deal: build it an audience, and it will come. Want to know what I mean by that? email me: bromack@mac.com.

Where: Galaxy Theatres, Neonopolis (downtown Las Vegas)

Cost: Regular ticket prices

Times: TBA (morning 'til night)

Red Carpet Gala Premiere will take place on Friday, September 5th. 

Time (For Premiere): TBA (evening)

A minimum of 50% of the proceeds from the sale of this film will go to the Michael J Fox Foundation (worded oddly like that as some terms are still being worked out and yet I need to be specific in order to use the Foundation's name).

I'm also working on a celebrity poker tournament to take place just before or during the run of the film. I will post more details as they get locked in.

If you'd like more info on the film, please visit our site: http://www.baseballdoc.com.
