Help Rebuild ~ The Holy Grail ~ Downtown Los Angeles

3:56 AM PDT on June 21, 2009

If you saw the televised reports of the looting and rioting near the Staples Center after the Los Angeles Lakers won the championship you probably saw a sneaker consignment boutique by the name The Holy Grail get completely wiped out. Richard and his staff are not going to let some "fans" take him out of business. He is in the process of getting the shop ready to open for business. He is asking if you have sneakers that you have been thinking about selling to contact him. There will be a fundraiser to help beef up the store's facade with a roll down door. Contact the staff at the Holy Grail at info@holygrailgoods.com or www.holygrailgoods.com.
