Monday 5pm to 1am at Fire Engine Pizza Company at 2914 Fairfield Ave, Bridgeport–
There was a very large structure fire in Bridgeport the other night and one of the structures taken was the home of Bridgeport firefighter Richard Minfield. Rich carried a woman out of the burning multi-family residence before Bridgeport Fire arrived on scene to battle the fire and keep it contained throughout the remainder of the night well into the following day. Rich made the rescue donning only tight whities (which according to reports weren’t the cleanest of undies.. it’s ok Rich, we all get scared just ask Scott McAulay) as he covered the woman with his shirt. All kidding aside, Rich and his family lost everything. I can’t even imagine that. We have already started raising funds in house and some fellow rookies even came together and bought him some work uniforms so he could come to work in proper dress. Please join us this Monday at Fire Engine Pizza Co. to continue to support Rich and his family and help get them back on their feet. The restaurant has generously agreed to donate a portion of the entire nights proceeds to the cause. We will also have a raffle and any other ideas are welcome. All you have to do to help is come down and have some pizza, drinks and watch mon night football with some of the best people you’ll ever meet. Thank you.
