Game time is 7:05 p.m. with the gates opening at 6:00 p.m. Fans will also be treated to a post-game Fireworks Show sponsored by Centralina Orthopaedics. Tickets may be purchased at the Intimidators Box Office, via telephone, or online at www.intimidatorsbaseball.com.
Many people are aware of who Jimmy Murphey is, others may not recognize the name, but know him merely as “the guy that feeds all those people at Christmas every year”. Over the last 40 years, Mr. Murphey has helped feed over 400,000 people at Christmas time in the Concord/Kannapolis, NC area. What most people are not aware of is his current living situation. Mr. Murphey’s home is in such poor shape that he has resorted to staying with a neighbor. The home has structural and mechanical problems. A leaking roof, no heat, deteriorated foundation, rotten roof eaves, and rotten windows are just a few items from a long list of deficiencies. The Jimmy Murphey Home Project was formed to help bring a man home that has opened his door to so many.
