Yesterday afternoon, Indiana Pacers players and coaches, members of the Indiana Fever, Pacemates and even mascots visited local children's hospitals, specifically Riley Children's Hospital in Carmel and downtown Indianapolis and Peyton Manning Children's Hospital at St. Vincent, to bring some fun and smiles to the patients there.
The members of the organization brought with them pizza, goodie bags and a spirited attitude, ready to have fun with the children they met. Autographs were signed, games were played, and lasting impressions were made.
"This is great that we get to come out and do this," said Pacers rookie forward Georges Niang, who visited Peyton Manning Children's Hospital.
