In this weeks mail,  I received this.

I entered some contest on FB for Haggar and won two tickets to the HHOF. Expiry date is 5/31/2016. This will give me plenty of time to go. Maybe I should go in the summer when they have the jersey card giveaway. This would really be getting admission  for nothing and the cards for free (I'm in dire straits)
