Ok, not really a brother (in either the geneological or fraternal sense of the word). This is more like the I've got a friend who's doing a fundraiser kind of plea. But there could be something in it for you, too...So, Brian (friend from high school, former doubles partner, married guy) is the women's basketball coach at Brescia University in Owensboro, KY - right across from Evansville, IN. His budget's not too awfully huge, and he could use a couple more dollars to drop toward team meals and the like, so he's got a fundraiser going.
Turns out that he's gotten his hands on a couple of Super Bowl tickets for the game this January in Detroit, and he's raffling them off at $20 a chance.
I know, $20 for the tickets sounds like a great deal, but what're the chances you'll win? Well, he's limiting the number of tickets sold to (if I remember correctly) 500, so you've got a pretty decent chance to win.
But, it'd stink to get the tickets and have to drive up to Detroit and back, right? Nope, they're throwing in airfare from anywhere in the US (I'm guessing that means continental US, but check with him for certain).
Well, yeah, but still, flying in and flying out for that day? C'mon. Ah, but you get a hotel room for two nights as well in the package.
Ok, but I'm too cheap to buy meals while I'm there. I'll starve! No you won't; they're including cash for meals, even.
It's an awesome prize, and it's going to help out a friend of mine. What could be better? And, let's be honest, the team could use a little help.
