The father of the gambling charity billboard - by Chris Velardi

(Meriden-WTNH, Jan. 7, 2005 5:45 PM) _ Every once in awhile a billboard gets your attention because it stands out from the rest. Have you seen the one that's not trying to sell anything but charity?
by News Channel 8's Chris Velardi

Nope.
Father Ed Nadolny did.
