Presented by Anheuser-Busch Companies

NAPA, Calif., Sept. 6 /PRNewswire/ -- Tug McGraw Foundation (TMF) will hold its third annual fundraising gala on Friday, Nov. 2 at Grant's Farm, the ancestral home of the Busch family located in St. Louis. Anheuser-Busch Companies is sponsoring "Denim & Diamonds: An Evening with Tim McGraw and Friends". Proceeds will benefit TMF's support of pioneering brain tumor research focusing on quality of life issues, medical internship and college scholarship programs, and activities promoting public awareness and understanding of brain tumors.

Award recipients include researchers, caregivers and brain tumor survivors, such as Bobby Murcer, retired major league baseball player (New York Yankees, San Francisco Giants and Chicago Cubs) and Emmy (R) Award-winning sportscaster currently with the Yankees YES Network, who will be honored with a 2007 Good Guy Award.
