Vancouver (AP) - All in the name of charity. Sunday proved to be a happy day for the city of Vancouver as the Vancouver Canucks were able to raise $4,875.00 for the local food banks and the Salvation Army. Over 2,100 fans flocked to GM Place Sunday afternoon to take part in the festivities. The Jello Wrestling event was nixed and instead a carnival took place. The Vancouver Canucks organization helped raise money by doing dunking booths, trivia games, photo ops, and autograph sessions for local fans. The admission fee was $6.00 for adults and $3.00 for children under 12. The festivities for Sunday changed, as GM Mango admitted she was wrong in only targeting the female fans: "We had to make this a family friendly event and because of the change, we raised money for those who need it. At the end of that day, that's all that matters. We hope our fans had a good time!"
