Sunday afternoon at the Happy Ending Bar in Los Angeles was a wonderful day of music, tattoos, food, drink for bikers and fans of FX series "Sons of Anarchy" to celebrate and fundraise for the Texas based-charity The Boot Ride.
The Texas-based Boot Campaign made its California debut on Sunday, August 28th with The Boot Ride, a fundraising motorcycle ride through the Hollywood Hills in support of soldiers returning from active duty.
Riders got to pony up and ride with the cast of “Sons of Anarchy,” pulling up at the Happy Ending Bar where the red-carpet event saw the likes of Theo Rossi (Juice), Ron Perlman (Clay), Mark Boone Jr. (Bobby), Dayton Callie (Unser), William Lucking (Piney), showrunner Kurt Sutter (Otto), Christopher D. Reed (Filthy Phil), Tommy Flanagan (Chibs), Katey Sagal (Gemma), Kim Coates (Tig) and many other castmembers.
The event featured a concert with Derek Sholl and the Katey Sagal Band.
The event also featured a meet & greet with Marcus Luttrell, veteran and author of Lone Survivor, the book that inspired the Boot Campaign.
Funds raised during LA Boot Ride will directly benefit Activision Blizzards Call of Duty Endowment, a non-profit public organization which helps soldiers transition to civilian careers after their military service. Boot Campaign is both an awareness driver and fundraising effort that Sons of Anarchy cast members Kim Coates, Theo Rossi and Dayton Callie proudly endorse.
Supporters of the Boot Campaign and Sons of Anarchy fans who cannot attend are encouraged to visit www.BootCampaign.com to see photos of the cast in their boots, donate directly to the Call of Duty Endowment or to purchase their own pair of “Give Back” combat boots and other apparel benefiting veterans’ charities.
