Sachem alum Louis Gregory has continued his streak of innovation in the entertainment and sports industries.
Gregory, who graduated from Sachem in 1996, is building a new project titled “Combat Crate” where fans can purchase very limited boxes of entertainment memorabilia related to combat sports, and all proceeds will support the Wounded Warriors Project.
“Combat Crate allows fans to get their hands on something great and exclusive, while simultaneously doing something amazing for Wounded Warriors,” he said in a statement. “This is a first for the industry and it’s getting the attention of many high profile people.”
According to a release, Combat Crate has promised to release 50 limited edition boxes, each containing rare and exclusive collectibles that relate to combat sports. These crates will contain genuine autographs, celebrity worn items, collectibles, action figures, shirts, and more.
Gregory has done a number of interesting things in sports and entertainment since graduating from Sachem. Whether it’s launching his latest venture “Legends of Wrestling”, which puts on shows across the country featuring some of the sport’s top names, to representing Bill Goldberg and The Fat Boys, or working with artist Romero Britto, he’s constantly reinventing the term creativity.
