I just wanted to a say a awesome person Bret Michaels is. Had the pleasure of meeting him at the Milford Oyster Festival yesterday. He radiates kindness. Such a beautiful soul. I wanted to give him this picture I took of him taking the ice bucket challenge.

In case you missed it, here is video if Bret accepting and answering the challenge.

– Team Bret

I’ve received a mass amount of supporters challenging me to take the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. I accept the challenge in honor of my good friend Brett Booge who lost his ALS battle. Thanks to the awesome, record breaking crowd in Connecticut and 99.1 WPLR for joining me in  the fight,  raising awareness and I’m now challenging my good friends Official AJ Hawk, Troy Polamalu and as soon as the ribs heal Andrew Mccutchen.
