Woman Dumps Boyfriend With Cancer But Still Wants His Super Bowl Tickets | Trending Now - Yahoo! News

Still looking for Super Bowl tickets? You may be in luck, but you're going to have to work for them. Jason Elia told ESPN 97.5 in Houston that he is giving his tickets to the person who gets him the most Twitter followers. Elia, a television writer who lives in Nashville, spent $8,000 on two tickets to Super Bowl XLVI in Indianapolis at Lucas Oil Stadium. He was going to take his football-loving girlfriend to the big game, but his plan went kaput. On November 7, he found out he had bladder cancer. When he told his girlfriend, she dumped him. In an interview with Trending Now, Elia said his girlfriend "could not handle the stress of having a boyfriend with cancer." To make matters worse, Elia was planning to propose to her on Christmas. Perhaps the cruelest twist of fate is that his ex-girlfriend still wanted the Super Bowl tickets. According to Elia, his ex-girlfriend says the tickets are rightfully hers because he bought them with her in mind. Well not only is Elia not giving her the tickets, he also held a contest to get rid of them. Using #WinMyExsSuperBowlTickets, he has gained thousands of followers so far, and he's planning to announce the winner Tuesday. Elia stresses that he's not doing this out of revenge. He says he "wants to give someone the same enjoyment that he thought he was going to get with someone he loved." The good news is that Elia has an 87% chance of survival, and he now has more than 9,600 Twitter followers.

      YEAH, a lot of women seem to think they are like the Elasian females on star trek! The Elasian females only had to get their tears on you, and you would be like a helpless robot. YEAH, that might SEEM to be true, with humans, but telling a guy that you are leaving him at the first breath of a problem, and asking for tickets that cost more than the official poverty line for yearly income, can quickly undo the effect! Besides, he might meet a woman that likes sports AND him, and he would then give HER the opportunity to go with him!

    He should give her the tickets, after she pays him after she pays him maybe $20K cash! I figure $16K wholesale price for the tickets, and $4K for the float, breach of contract, labor, etc...

    She claims they are HERS because he was thinking of her? He didn't even KNOW her, so how could he have been thinking about her. He was thinking about someone ELSE! Her comment just makes it CLEARER that he should be HAPPY for dodging the bullet!!!!

    The good news is that he will more than likely survive and found out in time what a bitch this woman is. What if he survived and was fine after just a few months and actually ended up strapped to this she-dragon for life?
