Dash for Cash: Playing on Thin Ice

Teachers are America's heroes.  They work hard and are largely undervalued for the important role they play.  An ice hockey (is all hockey played on ice?) team decided to honor some teachers by inviting them to apply for a half-time "Dash for Cash."  The idea was simple: put a bunch of teachers together around a big pile of dollar bills and let the fun begin!  Teachers got to keep the cash and use it in their classrooms because America really values public education.  A video clip of the Dash for Cash made its way onto the internet and The Sioux Falls Stampede hockey (ice hockey?) team found itself explaining to the angry mobs on the internet that no, no they weren't humiliating teachers making them crawl around after dollar bills for entertainment...they were trying to get money to teachers and do good in the community.

The Stampede ice hockey team issued some additional checks - and an apology.  Angry internet mobs get stuff done!  If you want to help get some stuff done, send some money to Adopt A Classroom (dot org).  That's www.adoptaclassroom.org and earn some good karma by way of a donation.  Careful listeners will note the karma joke from the episode gets played out in the show description!
