Cloutier will get about $218,000 after taxes, said Ice Classic manager Cherrie Forness.

Man, if I were given such a windfall, I'd not allow the Nenana Seniors to publish nothing more than my zip code to keep the criminal element from knocking on my door.
Congratulations though!
Headin' to A-town to look for my sugar momma!
