The champ is here… and they’re from Delco!
Mini Hoops Madness returned to Preston & Steve’s Camp Out For Hunger. But it looked a little different this year. In the past, the City 6 coaches faced off for the prestigious bragging rights. This year, it’s Philly Sportscasters.
Each of the five competitors stepped up to the Mini Hoops game to show off their old school arcade skills. On the line? Bragging rights. A championship belt. And $5,000 to Camp Out For Hunger donated in their name by Victory Brewing Company. As you might imagine, it got a little vicious.
We called upon our good buddy and Camp Out For Hunger veteran, Jim Jackson for play-by-play. The chirping he gave the contestants was an added bonus. With 30 seconds on the clock, we saw how each of these broadcasters reacts under pressure. Scroll down to meet the contestants and read their all-star introductions. Then see who took home the belt and the big win for Philabundance.
About Preston & Steve’s Camp Out For Hunger:
This is Preston & Steve’s 26th annual Camp Out For Hunger collecting non-perishable items for Philabundance to support those in need. The 93.3 WMMR hosts actually ‘Camp Out’ in the parking lot of Xfinity Live inside the Wells Fargo Center Complex for the week-long broadcast. During the five days, they invite listeners to come down, watch the carnival-like show. Each morning is filled with new guests, games, stunts… and yes, carnival rides.
The family friendly event is free to attend, they ask that everyone bring non-perishable food donations or purchase donations from the on-site ACME Market pop up store. The Preston & Steve Show broadcasts live from 6a – 10:30a, then hand the mic over to legendary mid-day host, Pierre Robert who keeps the party going until 3pm, when afternoon WMMR DJ, Brent Porsche takes over until 7pm. Resident Vampire DJ, Jacky Bam Bam is known to do a shift or two from South Philly as well.
