More good luck due to the Pups

Not sure if this is the best section for this, but i'll let the Mods decide that
I 've had some great luck ever since becoming a Sick Puppies fan. It all started when I won a 32inch LCD TV in a contest at their T Mobile Store performence.
Well it continued last night.
Since I shelled out 80 bucks to go see the Pups at Nickleback, shelled out 30 bucks in Sick Pup CD's at said show, shelled out 30 bucks to see them in Rolla, where I also bought a new Pups shirt, not to mention the cost of Emmas b-day gift I got for her, I was, needless to say, broke. But I wasn't complaining.
So Pearl Jam was in St. Louis last night and I couldn't afford to go. I knew in advance I wouldn't be able to, because I wanted to see the Pups instead... that's right... I chose the Pups over Pearl Jam! Well out of the blue a buddy of mine calls me up and asks me if I want 2 tickets to Pearl Jam. I asked him "how much?". He replied "Free". SCORE!!! Turns out he got them for free anyways, and just couldn't go since he has kids.
It doesn't end there either.
My best friend obviosuly had dibbs on the other ticket but his bro wanted to go as well. Luckily it wasn't sold out so we just bought the cheapest ticket we could get and split it 3 ways, costing us each $15. We then went and sat up in the nose bleed section where alot of seats were open.
I was sporting my Sick Puppies shirt at the show. Oddly enough I had at least 10 people comment on the shirt. Some screamed "YEAH SICK PUPPIES", others stirred up a conversation with me about the band (including the guy who sold me Beer). It was pretty cool to see so many people were into the Pups.
After the conversation I had with the Beer vendor, the 3 of us were wondering back to our seats because the crowd starting cheering, which meant Pearl Jam was hitting the stage. Just then an Usher came up to me and said "He-- Yeah Sick puppies, that band is awesome". I concurred. Then he says "Hey you guys wanna upgrade to the lower level dead center" and proceeded to hand me 3 tickets. The 3 of us were blown away. I said "did you decide to give these to me just because I was wearing a Sick Puppies shirt?". He responded "Yep".
So I ended up getting to see Pearl Jam in $70 seats for just $15. And they rocked the house! Yet again, more good luck due to being a Sick Puppies fan.
Maybe I should go play the lottery next time I see them in concert
