The National Aviary's Fights and Feathers benefit Friday evening at Heinz Field Club East Lounge, chaired by Mascaro brothers Mike and Jeff, featured everything a guy could ask for -- well almost everything. It began with plenty of food and drink and a room full of virtual sports games. After having fun pretending, the mostly male event moved on to the bocce ball tournament with a $1,000 cash prize for the winning team. Teams of two played on courts set up next to the boxing ring, where the main attraction was held. Four boxing matches ended a knockout evening for the birds.
