Friend Encounters: Weird Al Yankovic and Troy G.

Friend Encounters is a weekly series featuring friends meeting celebrities.

Once again I present my media pal Troy at the Big Slick Charity Celebrity Softball Weekend. Troy covers and participates in it and I cover Troy.

Weird Al Yankovic was one of the many celebs who were in Kansas City. Yankovic is such a talented person. Many years and hundreds of parody songs into his career, he is still going strong. Unfortunately, there is no box score to see how he did at the game, but outcomes don't matter, because it's all about raising money. 

The brainchild of Rob Riggle, Paul Rudd and Jason Sudeikis, Big Slick debuted in 2010. It has raised $21 million for Children's Mercy.

I saw so many other celebs with Troy. I really am envious. I also hope to be there some year.

Go to The Geary Stein & Stevens Show to be entertained. Also, check bigslickkc.org for more info on that great event and organization.
