They're called Bubba's Believers.  And Saturday, friends and family of Whitesville shooting victim Aaron "Bubba" Knott are holding a huge fundraiser for him at The Black Cat.

Bubba, a former Marine who served twice in Iraq, remains hospitalized at the University of Louisville hospital after being shot multiple times last Friday night.  While he is slowly improving (despite potentially life-threatening injuries), doctors know that he has a very long road to recovery ahead.  That road is physical, emotional and financial.

To help offset some of Bubba's mounting medical costs, friends and family members have organized a Bubba's Believers fundraiser this weekend.  It begins at 7am at The Black Cat in Whitesville and will last throughout the day.  There will be a barbecue, silent auction, live music and much more.  Everyone is invited to attend and rally behind Bubba's recovery.
