Davenport, IA February 17, 2012 - Local fundraising group DubStar will recreate the television magic of the hit NBC game show, 'Minute To Win It' to support the Quad Cities Autism Center, with their second annual event titled DubStar Presents: Minute 2 Win It. The event will take place Feb 17 at 8:00pm, live from The Pub (4320 Brady Street - Davenport) and will again be hosted by local comedian, Brandon Gale.


DubStar is hoping to capitalize on the success of 2011 event, that gained the attention on NBC producers, who asked the pair to apply to be contestants and submit a highlight video to possibly be used on the show. For the Feb 17 event, DubStar has added more games, more prizes, and a few new elements, including team challenges to the show.

 

"Last year was so much fun, and such a tremendous success." siad returning host, Brandon Gale. "The only complaint was that not everyone could play, so we added five more games and two team challenges," Gale added. "At times like these, when funds are tight, this is a great way to get involved and help an amazing cause. In exchange for your support, our service is to offer you a night of fun and fabulous prizes."
