08Thomas finding it’s good to be a Saint Amid ‘whirlwind,’ Super Bowl champ back home in Lynwood
April 7, 2010
Since scoring a touchdown and helping the New Orleans Saints win Super Bowl XLIV over the Indianapolis Colts in February, T.F. South graduate and star running back Pierre Thomas has been busy.
“I was on ‘TMZ’ (with Reggie Bush and Kim Kardashian), hosted a victory party with teammate Lance Moore in Las Vegas and was on ‘Jimmy Kimmel (Live!)’ twice, once in a skit and once on the actual set of the show,” Thomas, wearing a big smile, said.
Tuesday night, Thomas and many of those friends packed Popolano’s Restaurant in Lansing to raise money for his favorite foundation, “Dreams for Kids,” which helps spread awareness for those in need. Its slogan is “Changing lives, one kid at a time.”
