Name was changed after the fact. Also a blurb on the site about "portions of the proceeds" benefiting was added after the fact. They even referenced they didn't mention adding this was a "benefit" in the beginning because they rushed to get applications up for teams so people could start signing up...........believe what you will.........
From the FB Page "Much of what was done on the website yesterday was done very quickly to get the registration up for teams to register."
Taking 2mins to add this was a benefit from the very beginning takes zero effort. So seems like they rotated quickly after the backlash of the presumed initial real intent of simply having a contest to have a contest
I wonder what "portions" means
