INDIANAPOLIS -- Indianapolis Colts punter Pat McAfee is doing more than hosting podcasts off the field, but will now host a comedy fundraiser, "Cracking up for Kokomo" after a tornado carrying 152 mile per hour winds left destruction in the city.
The one-night show of entertainment will raise money for the people of Kokomo in need of assistance after the storm.
