Kick Cystic Fibrosis with NFL Kicker Josh Brown - Appreciating the thrill of the unexpected; Tommy Bahama joined forces with New York Giants kicker Josh Brown on a surprise video shoot in New York City.  Brown had always dreamed of kicking field goals in a busy urban setting and with Tommy Bahama's help, he did just that and filmed it all!  Even 'seen everything' New Yorkers were delighted to watch Brown kick 'goals' over iconic NYC landmarks, amidst the  hustle and bustle of  the city.  The resulting videos show some amazing kicks and a chance for Brown to draw attention to his goodfor3 Foundation that raises money for Cystic Fibrosis research.  In support of Brown, Tommy Bahama will make a donation of $10K to goodfor3 and will host "Kick Cystic Fibrosis with Josh Brown" events where donors to goodfor3 have the opportunity to meet, greet and kick a field goal with Brown. Tommy Bahama will also actively post and promote Brown's city kicking videos, to encourage people to watch and share the videos with others to help Brown raise awareness and money for Cystic Fibrosis research. tommybahama.com/goodfor3
