Statistics show that testicular cancer is the most common malignancy in young men between the ages of 18 and 35, and although it accounts for only about one percent of all cancers in men, it is the number-one cancer killer among men in their 20s and 30s. Detected early, it is also the most curable form of cancer.
Last year, Nuts4Ribs made a huge impact and left attendees wanting more. More than 2,000 people attended the event, 700 racks of ribs were sold and more than $25,000 was raised. Ninety-six percent said they would come back to Nuts4Ribs in 2008 - not bad for a first-time event.
