Arsenio Hall loves basketball, so on Monday he launched an Indiegogo campaign that lets viewers donate money towards his efforts to buy the LA Clippers. The late night host needs to raise a billion dollars to meet his goal and buy the team – but if he doesn’t raise enough cash, he’ll be donating all funds to the NAACP.
“Now they will never have to take Donald Sterling’s money, ever again,” Arsenio told his audience.
In April, Clippers owner Donald Sterling came under serious fire when tapes of him allegedly telling his girlfriend V. Stiviano that he didn’t want her to bring black people to his games were released. Sterling was subsequently banned from the NBA.
Curious about the perks? Viewers who donate $50 will recieve a retweet from Hall; donate $35,000 and Hall will get a lower back temporary tattoo of your name and show it off on-air or donate $100,000 and you get to be Hall’s sidekick for an entire show.
Arsenio is also accepting suggestions for more perks, and fans can make those suggestions by tweeting them with the tag #Clipgogoperks.
