Aww! Poor girl is offering Super Bowl tickets just to get a date ;-)


Bears Fan Seeking 'Date' For Super Bowl

http://cbs4boston.com/watercooler/local_story_029230859.html

(CBS4) CHICAGO One Chicago Bears fan is praising the internet for helping her cause to get into the Super Bowl.

26-year-old Sarah Spain was all set to go but she didn't have a ticket.

The Cornell graduate posted an ad on eBay offering to go as someone's date in exchange for the ticket. That didn't work because eBay pulled the ad.

But a Chicago-based company saved the day and gave her four tickets.

Three will go to Sarah and a couple of her friends.

The other will go to a male Bears fan of her choice. All they have to do is tell Sarah why she should pick them.

3. It would be cool if she took a kid/elderly person.
Would make seem like less of a hoochie for putting herself on-line.

8. I wouldn't take a kid to an NFL game
Okay I have only been to one (1998 opening day at the new Baltimore stadium) but the language alone was enough to not take anyone under 15 or so. Maybe things have changed (I doubt it), maybe it was just a Baltimore thing (I doubt it), maybe the Super Bowl is different (I doubt it).

6. That was my first thought

Until I read the article more closely --

She can get plenty of dates, it seems. It's just that none of them have Super Bowl tickets. Poor thing...
