As the NFL Conference Championship heats up, so does the excitement at Herkimer's annual tailgate party—delicious food, great company, and a chance to give back!
The annual NFL Conference Championship Tailgate Party benefitting charity was held on Sunday at the Waterfront Grille in Herkimer. Organizers Marc Butler and Rocky Fiato teamed up with WIBX's Keeler Show to raise funds for three local charities.
Two sitting Republican elected officials in New York's 22nd congressional district, and the district's former representative are publicly backing the Democratic challenger instead of their own party's incumbent.
The Assembly seat currently held by retiring Marc Butler is up for grabs in November and Herkimer County Democrat Keith Rubino is vying for the seat; but, does he have a chance? WIBX's Bill Keeler says he has no chance as a Democrat and Rubino obviously disagrees.

In fact, it was downright funny.
