Hundreds turn out in Times Square in an attempt to set new 'Tic Tac Toe Played for Charity' World Record
Hundreds of CancerCare supporters turned out today in New York City’s Times Square to try to set a new Guinness World Record for the most Tic Tac Toe games played simultaneously for charity.
The event, at the ABC Studios, was hosted by the Tic Tac® brand, to raise awareness for CancerCare‘s free professional support services to anyone facing a cancer diagnosis. Tic Tac has been a generous supporter of CancerCare for the last 5 years. This year, Tic Tac’s Jim Morris was on hand to present CancerCare’s Tina Wyman with a $100,000 check to help us continue providing free counseling, education and practical support to individuals and families affected by cancer.
The game — and the giving — doesn’t stop in Times Square: Visit www.cancercare.org or www.tictacusa.com and play Tic Tac Toe online. Tic Tac® will make an additional donation of $1 for every unique user who plays the game, up to $5,000.
Many thanks to the Tic Tac® brand and everyone who joined us in Times Square today! Check back with us soon to see if we set a new record.
