Think you can handle The Truth in the bowling alley?
Celtics forward Paul Pierce is holding his third annual celebrity bowling tournament on Friday to benefit Pierce's Truth on Health Campaign. The tournament, "The Truth Strikes Again," will be held at the newly opened High Rollers Luxury Lanes and Lounge at Foxwoods Resort and Casino.
The Celtics' captain will be joined by several athletes and celebrities including Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen, Rajon Rondo, Brian Scalabrine, Wes Welker, Doug Flutie and Patrice Bergeron, just to name a few.
"Truth Strikes Again" will also feature a high-end raffle, a live auction and a post-event party at Shrine. The event is expected to generate more than $300,000 for Pierce's charity, The Truth Fund, and his Truth on Health Campaign.
Pierce established The Truth Fund in 2002 to provide educational and life-enriching opportunities for underprivileged children. His Truth on Health Campaign was launched in 2009, and encourages young people to lead healthier lifestyles.
"Staying active and eating healthy have been very important to my success, so I think it's critical for kids to understand that exercise and nutrition are important keys to leading a happy and fulfilling life," Pierce said. "I was really excited by the success of last year's event, and I think that this year The Truth Strikes Again will be even better."
Tickets are still available for the event, which kicks off on Friday, Dec. 17. To learn more about Pierce's benefit, or to purchase tickets, please click here.
