💙 This year at the Big Slick Show, we shared the story of an extraordinary young man: Peter Vincent. A cellist. A Boy Scout. An athlete. A chess player. A fighter. While bravely undergoing treatment for cancer at childrensmercy, Peter chose to give back. He started his own fundraiser and donated every penny of his savings—$1,800—to help other kids just like him. Tragically, Peter lost his battle just two weeks before this year’s Big Slick Celebrity Weekend. But his spirit and selflessness lit up T-Mobile Center. After Peter’s story played, his family joined our hosts on stage, where—through heartbreak and with incredible grace—Peter’s father shared his son’s wish: 👉 That we continue the fight against cancer in his name. And the crowd responded. In a wave of love and purpose, paddle after paddle went up—many matching Peter’s $1,800 donation—leading to a record-breaking $4.5 MILLION raised for Children’s Mercy this year. Thank you to the Vincent family for allowing us to honor Pet...
