You can reserve your place in Pittsburgh’s new Consol Energy Center and help Mario give others a chance to win!

For just a $66.00 donation to the Mario Lemieux Foundation, your photograph, combined with thousands of others, will create a 20’ x 8’ Mario Mosaic that pays tribute to the career of Pittsburgh Penguins hockey legend and Hall-of-Famer, Mario Lemieux. The mosaic will be displayed in the main lobby of the new Consol Energy Center, allowing the general public to view the mosaic during regular business hours free of charge!

Most importantly, your tax-deductible donation will support Mario’s greatest passion – giving back to the community through the Mario Lemieux Foundation’s cancer research projects and Austin’s Playroom Project.

There can be no question. I must be a part of this.

If you happen to read this…might be a foolish idea, but I was thinking that if we got enough Pensburgh regulars to pitch in a few bucks each, maybe we send in the Pensburgh logo (or whatever you call the thing in the upper left corner of the page) to have it included in the Mosaic. Heck, I’d contribute $6 for that, so we’d only need 10 more people giving $6 and we’re in.

That’s a great idea. Do you think the team would put it up?

I can’t say for sure, but everything that I’ve seen on this leaves me with the impression that if you make your donation, your pic will be included. Obviously I’m sure they would weed out anything offensive.

I want in guys….

but how are we gonna collate the cash… an envelop fill with dollar bills sent to you guys?

besides, putting the Pensburgh logo on the wall’s the best way for the team to recognize the fan base…

After about a year and a half, I've finally got around to giving myself a profile. Yay me!

The money is a good question. Paypal can be used to collect the money. If you are sending as a personal transfer, it is free within the US if it is funded from a Paypal balance or bank account. There is a small fee if you are using a credit card, or for transfers outside the US.

I’m all for it. I’ll donate more than $6 at this rate.

Yeah, I’m sure I would too. $6 just came to mind ‘cause I figured we could get 11 people to go in on it, but if we only get 6 people, I’ll happily pitch in $11. Really, I’m just trying to prove that I can do very simple math.

New information

I just submitted a couple of photos. Here’s how it works:

-Obviously, you make a $66 donation per photo
-Photos should be more horizontal than veritical
-Photos can be up to 6MB
-You write a caption for the photo, up to 140 characters
-You write a bit about your favorite Mario moment, up to 140 characters.

Once you submit the photo, you’ll get a confirmation email. Your photo and text will be reviewed and if deemed in any way inappropriate, you’ll be asked to submit a new photo, or edit your text. Otherwise, you’ll be notified that your photo has been approved and you’re in.

I was glad to see this because I wasn’t sure if everyone would be guaranteed a spot in the mosaic.

I knew we’re all busy with the playoffs, but at some point I’ll get back to the idea of submitting a Pensburgh logo.

9 wins to go!
