Tracking Leon's tantrums for a good cause

quirky · Post by **quirky** » February 9th, 2024, 5:25 pm

Hey guys, I am the student that has done the "Leon Tantrum Tracker" for the past couple of boise games. For this game, I am still doing the tracker, but I feel like we could simultaneously heckle leon and also do it for a good cause. I have some people that have committed a set amount of money for every tantrum leon throws, and we are donating the total amount to the Boys and Girls club of Boise. I currently have about 7-8 people donating, but I have a feeling that if there are other people who want to donate, they would be on here

If you want to help donate, DM me your Venmo account and tell me how much money you would be willing to donate per tantrum.

just to let you know, he has averaged 24 tantrums in the 2 games last year. The way I count the tantrums is mostly vibes based (if he complains to the ref as they run past, that's one tantrum. if he argues with the ref for an extended period of time, I add a tantrum every 5-10 seconds. if he gets a tech, that's 5 tantrums. stuff like that)

Awesome! Just curious about donating to Boise Boys and Girls instead of a local charity? Plenty of good ones around.

I decided on the boise boys and girls club because the boys and girls club has an A- rating from CharityWatch.org, and I wasn't able to find a Logan chapter of the boys and girls club

Although I do think that Cache Refugees would be great, and I feel a little dumb for not thinking of the Utah Food Bank, all of them would be excellent

Boys & Girls Club of Northern Utah-Brigham Club
(435) 723-6224

Their main office is in Brigham City but they have a clubhouse in Logan on Main Street in the old Northern Utah Glass garage.

You made the KSL article about last nights game. How many tantrums did you track?

Yeah, I counted 20 tantrums (he ended up curling up into a ball and didn't react to *anything* for the last 10 minutes), but the final dollar amount is still being counted up. I've had a lot of people decide to donate after the game, so the total is even higher than $360

What a great night, I enjoyed it so much
