If it weren’t for the short list of genuine action sports heros who are schedule to attend the Ryan Sheckler X Games Celebrity Skins Game<\/a><\/strong>,<\/strong> the celebrity list would read something closer to a joke: So, Brody Jenner<\/strong>, Mia Hamm<\/strong>, Kevin Federline<\/strong>, Bode Miller<\/strong>, and Vern Troyer<\/strong> walk into a bar. . .<\/p>\n

But we shouldn’t laugh. The RSXGCSG (produced by the Sheckler Fountation<\/a><\/strong>) will be held July 29, 2008 at the Trump National Golf Course<\/a><\/strong> in Palos Verdes, California. And the proceeds from the event will go to four worthy charities: Wings for Life<\/a><\/strong>, Road 2 Recovery<\/a><\/strong>, The Athlete Recovery Fund<\/a><\/strong>, and Boarding for Breast Cancer<\/a><\/strong>.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

If you want to join Ricky Carmichael<\/strong>, Eric Koston<\/strong>, Sal Masekela<\/strong>, Dave Mirra<\/strong> and the boys, the cheapest foursome spots are going for $20,000. The Gold super VIP package requires a $50,000 donation. We think that package includes getting your balls washed by The Hills<\/strong> Star Audrina Patridge, <\/strong>but don’t quote us on that. (Damn, there we go again. Sorry.)<\/p>\n

Golfing sucks, so if you’re going to golf, might as well do it for a good cause. And Ryan doesn’t have to do this stuff, but he does. And that’s pretty cool.<\/p>\n
