Attention PA readers…
A friend of Dr. Lieutenant Andy Baldwin just sent me some information regarding a fundraising effort that our favorite Bachelor supports.
The good doctor is raising awareness of the serious effects of childhood obesity. He began a health ride across the state of Pennsylvania with his dad Roy (how cute is that?) and other supporters on October 2. The cyclists will end their trek TOMORROW at the picnic area of Fairmont Park in Philadelphia.
They are all going to run up the steps like Rocky. Is that not the coolest?
I would totally run up those steps, find Dr. Lt. Andy and hand him an iHateGreenBeans.com t-shirt with pride. Then I would hug him and secretly feel his abs and arm muscles. I would NOT sing “Love Lift Us Up Where We Belong” and ask him to pick me up in his arms. [I would secretly think about how wonderful that would be.]
Since I can’t be there, I would love for the PA readers to step in for me. Bring a colorful sign that reads, “Lincee is your #1 fan” or “Andy hates green beans too!” and have our beloved Bachelor pose for a picture. I’ll be your best friend forever.
If you are interested, details are below. According to his friend, “It’s a good cause for a good guy.”
C’mon PA! Support our favorite Bachelor!
Just a small correction – the bike ride is ending in Philadelphia, not Pittsburgh.
And I would totally drive up from DC if I could!
Good catch Tess! I’ve changed the copy to fix my mistake. Thanks so much!
Maybe Reid will show up at Fairmont Park. Double motivation.
OMG Lincee I live in the Art Museum area right near there. I will do my best to get a picture
How coincidental….I happen to be arriving home via train tomorrow around noon!! Looks like I’ll be making a pit stop before my final destination!!!
I live in PA and near Philly but sadly cannot make it – if I could I would totally do it, not for Andy, but for Lincee and the IHGB blog readers! I love this site!!
i live about 3 miles from there and will do my best to be there! id ride too if i had a bike!
I so would have done this for you, Lincee!!! I live in Philly and was playing football nearby on Saturday afternoon. Had I read this post sooner, I would have gladly shown up with a sign and had pictures taken with Lt. Andy! Hopefully another Philly Bachelor fan was able to get it done for you! If so, please post pics. 🙂
You know, as much as I love Andy and think he’s still hawt, this whole “awareness of childhood obesity” is a crock of shit. And as a doctor, he should KNOW that! But no. Instead of actually reading the studies – that he has full access to as do all of us – he just reads the sound bites that are pulled from it by the media to alarm us. There is no childhood obesity epidemic. Every study on it has been what is known as a null study. That means there is nothing statistically significant about it. Kids and parents with education about food choices have no appreciable difference in their BMI when they start “eating healthy” compared to the “junk food” they were eating before. And the kids and parents in the same study that didn’t get the education in those studies stayed in the same BMI area as well. It’s a crock! And nevermind that BMI isn’t a real indicator of a person’s “fatness” or “thinness” and the doctor who designed it back in the early 1900s said so! *sigh*
