Kraft Hunger Bowl Wrap-up

Players from the University of Illinois Fighting Illini joined the front lines in the fight against hunger at St. Anthony’s on Friday, December 30th, serving nearly 3,000 meals – generously provided by the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl – to some of San Francisco’s neediest individuals and families. One of the best moments of the day was also the least planned; players erupted in a freestyle jam session with a piano virtuoso who regularly eats in our Dining Room. This performance has become a viral sensation on YouTube as it makes it way around the world. We knew the Illini would be great athletes; little did we know they would be such incredible performers, too! Check out their performance here.

Congratulations to the Fighting Illini, who went on to beat UCLA 20-14 in a hard-fought game at AT&T Park.
