How can I not try...

As a lifelong charger fan and someone who barely knows how to post on these blogs I had to give it a go for a chance to go to the game in N.Y. First of all I read this website a couple of times a week and enjoy the updated material as the UT, and chargers.com are fairly quiet this time of the year. When I read this challenge for a free ticket I thought two things. 1. Is this guy crazy? 2. He must be my brother from another mother. What a sweet idea to get the competitive juices flowing. As I grew up my father was and still is a minister. Sunday's were dedicated to church in the am, football and family in the afternoon, and church again sunday night. My mom still tells stories of dad being so mad after a charger's loss on sunday afternoon that he could hardly preach on sunday night. I fondly remember my family members yelling at the tv while watching the airshows of the early 1980's. My family has had season tickets in some form or fashion dating back to balboa stadium. I have great memories of tailgating as a child at the "murph" as we like to call it. I have seen the chargers play on the road in Minnesota, Los Angeles <raiders>, Jacksonville, Tennesse. The worst of all experiences being of course LA. We actually had a raider fan attempt to urinate on us while in his seat. Yes, I truly despise the raiders as does any good charger fan. My daughters know the one thing that will be tolerated in a boyfriend/future husband is 1. A bandwagon fan 2. A raider fan. I now live in South Georgia thus the name GABOLT. My family and I all love the chargers and we live and die on sunday afternoons in the dirty south. My kids go to school proudly sporting blue and gold all year long. Fatheads of LT and tons of memorbilia cover our walls. I actually am in the procees of converting my garage to a charger room for sunday afternoons. These are just a few of the fond memories I hold of being a charger fan. I write all of this to show that if you take me with you I will certainly not dissapoint, You will have someone who shares the love of the chargers, is over 21 and is not a lush. If you give me the ticket I will be there and will be ready to scream for the chargers. Regardless of the outcome your post has caused this technologically handicapped charger fan to dive in head first to the blogging world. Thank you for your time. GABOLT
