Crazy Cash Night

When I arrived at the American Legion Hall at about 9:30 p.m. Saturday, I had planned to stay until the final ball was drawn and get a reaction photo from the winner.

One slight problem: the winner wasn't in attendance. Jerry Humitz, a Kiwanis Club member, had gone out and spent time with some family that came into town. Humitz was the first winner of the $5,000 main prize that wasn't there to collect his winnings since the first Crazy Cash Night more than a decade ago.

But overall, the night ended in success. Tickets Nos. 199 and 200 were auctioned off for $500 and $1,250, respectively, and plenty came and enjoyed dinner.

In case you missed it, here are some additional photos from the night. For a video showing the last ball being pulled, check it out here in the story.
