JIMBO & CANDI FISHER
LEGACY FSU FOOTBALL COACH, BOBBY BOWDEN, TO HOST LIVE REDDIT AMA
IN SUPPORT OF KIDZ1STFUND
TALLAHASSEE, Fla., (Aug. 13, 2014) – Florida State University football coaching legend, Bobby Bowden, will host a Reddit ‘Ask Me Anything’ (AMA) hour long session on Aug. 19,
9 to 10 a.m. EDT, in support of Kidz1stFund – a nonprofit foundation created by current FSU head football coach Jimbo Fisher, and his wife, Candi. Bowden will provide live responses to fan questions while raising awareness toward the fund’s fight against Fanconi anemia (FA), a rare blood disease affecting the Fisher’s younger son, Ethan.
After Ethan was diagnosed in 2011, the Fishers spearheaded Kidz1stFund in hopes of improving treatment options, raising national awareness and helping to fund research that will ultimately lead to a cure for FA. Since launching their public battle against FA, the Fishers teamed up with Bowden to help spread the word on the rare medical condition, affecting 1 in 131,000 people annually.
“Candi and I are so grateful for Coach Bowden’s support and dedication to Kidz1stFund,” Coach Fisher said. “His famous voice continues to raise awareness about Fanconi anemia and our fight for a cure.”
Bowden’s Reddit AMA will provide fans with the chance to ask the most-winning college football coach questions covering a wide range of topics, from highlights of Bowden’s 33-season FSU coaching career to his favorite cereal.
Fans are encouraged to log on at 9 a.m. EDT, Aug. 19, to Reddit’s College Football Section at reddit.com/r/cfb.
