Hey, wrestlefriends, I know we're not on wreddit any more, but I received a notification via their discord that one of their long time moderators, Kentucky210, suffered two strokes on Dec 23rd. His parents are asking his fellow wredditors for help with current and future medical expenses. As of this posting, they have just passed $3k of their $25k goal.

The gofundme link above (and below for fediverse friends, just in case) has more details.

Update 2-23-2024: Fundraiser has stagnated at about $8.5k, so I'll be throwing in another $25. Please don't take this as me pressuring anyone to donate. See latest comment for update on Kentucky210's condition.

Just a quick update, the fundraiser has now passed $5k.

@TellumSiege @GeekFTW I'd like to keep this thread pinned until at least Sunday. We're more active during AEW shows and I want to get as many eyes on this as possible to help a fellow wrestling fan in need.

Feel free to keep it up as long as needed. We're not limited by Reddit's 'no more than two pinned posts' schtick thankfully and it's for a good cause regardless.
