He resolved to get season tickets to the Packers and did so by regularly donating blood for the money. He keep this up for years. A physical revealed he had a rare blood disorder that cause excess iron in the blood and there is no cure. Only treatment is regular blood donating. Please donate blood regularly. I can't donate anymore because I was stationed in Europe in the mid to late 1990s and my wife can't give due to health problems.

Ummmm... Wouldn't this blood disorder have caused problems for the recipients of this guy's blood?
Typical Packers fan - screwing up everybody ELSE'S life!
