Petey's Party Packs the Bridgestone Arena For A Great Cause

The Bridgestone Arena floor was filled with tables and supporters to raise funds for the Predators Foundation and the Peterson for Parkinson's Foundation. The event raises funds to support the Predators Foundation and Brent Peterson's Foundation to raise funds for research to find a cure for Parkinson's.
