Jenny McCarthy and Lance Armstrong Team Up to Fight Autism

Jenny McCarthy, as the spokesperson for Talk About Curing Autism (TACA), will be joined by Lance Armstrong in hosting Ante Up For Autism, a celebrity charity poker event. The night will also include a live a silent auction.

Some of the celebs planning to ante up are Tony Hawk, Ryan Sheckler, Jim Everett, to name a few. The event is open to the public, with a $500 per person buy-in just to attend and a $1000 buy-in to take part in the poker tournament, so if you’re near the Regis Hotel in Monarch Beach/Dana Point, California this Friday, don’t say there’s nothing fun to do!

If you’re not in the area, or just don’t have $500 or more to throw around, you can make a smaller purchase and still help out — Ante Up For Autism playing cards are available for just $5.50 here. You can purchase tickets there as well, but you should know that they’ll only be available until Thursday, October 2 at 5 p.m. PST. Or, you can take part in the silent auction at this website.

If you’re just interested in learning more about the Ante Up For Autism Event, check out their website (and you tell me — does that picture look anything like Jenny McCarthy? What kind of photoshopping did they do?).

Ante Up For Autism playing cards can be purchased from TACA for $5.50.
