Caring Causes: Patrick Warburton and St. Jude

We would love to set up an interview with you and Patrick Warburton ("Seinfeld," "Family Guy," "The Tick," "Rules of Engagement,") to share how this past weekend he raised a record making $3.6 million for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital at the 10th Anniversary of The Warburton celebrity golf tournament & concert. This makes Patrick's Southern California event the biggest golf tournament fundraiser for St. Jude in the country, and brings the total Warburton raised since the event first kicked off in 2011 to $15.6 million.
 
Patrick Warburton brought more than 75 celebrities, songwriters and rock legends for a weekend of golf in Palm desert and one-of-a-kind music events for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital which leads the way the world understands, treats and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases.
 
The star-studded weekend in the desert raising funds for kids battling pediatric cancer and other life-threatening diseases welcomed a diverse group of celebrities including rock legends like Mark McGrath (lead singer of Sugar Ray), Mickey Thomas (Starship), Al Paris (formerly of Kool & the Gang), Wally Palmar (lead singer of The Romantics), Jason Scheff (longtime lead singer of Chicago), John Elefante (formerly of Kansas), Mike Mills (REM), Derek St. Holmes (Ted Nugent), Jeff "Skunk" Baxter (formerly of Steely Dan and The Doobie Brothers) and Chris Barron (lead singer of the Spin Doctors); actors including Richard Karn, Chris McDonald, Bruce McGill, Richard Kind, Kevin Rahm, Kevin Dillon, Oliver Hudson, Robert Hays, Andy Buckley, Bruce Thomas, Brian Thompson, Galen Gering, Bill Smitrovich, Johnathan Fernandez, Jeffrey Nordling, Sam Hennings, and Paula Trickey; radio personality, Rick Dees; NFL stars Sterling Sharp and Jim McMahon; MLB players Eric Gagne, Kurt Bevacqua, Scott Erickson, Tommy John and David Wells; and NHL Hall-of-Famer Grant Fuhr.
 
In addition, Patrick Warburton is also celebrating the 20th anniversary of his now cult-classic 1990's dark comedy THE WOMAN CHASER. Warburton plays used car salesmen/genius filmmaker 'Richard Hudson,' and gives the best performance of his career. Every second of this movie is deadly serious. And every second is utterly hilarious.
