Description
Pat McAfee hosted his "Kicking is Easy" challenge at the University of Georgia Saturday, Nov. 16 — and it produced not one winner but two!
For those who aren't familiar with McAfee's challenge, the first 300 people who arrive at College GameDay have an opportunity to get a raffle ticket that is randomly drawn. The lucky person chosen gets to kick a 33-yard field goal in hopes of winning a whopping $100,000.
However, this time was a first.
Belle Sessions was the winner of the raffle, but she told McAfee that she wouldn't be able to kick the ball. So, she talked to Henry Silver, of Fishers, Indiana, who was standing next to her, and he said he'd be able to do it.
Sessions then said if he made the goal, they would split the money.
Right before Silver kicked, McAfee upped the ante.
McAfee announced that Silver and Sessions would walk away with $800,000, with each of them getting $200,000 and $400,000 going to hurricane relief.
