NFL's Cleveland Browns donate 50 Super Bowl tickets to Marines
CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C. The Cleveland Browns won't be at tomorrow's Super Bowl, but they're sending 50 Marines. The Browns donated the 50-yard-line seats to the Marines as a thank-you for service in Iraq and Afghanistan. The tickets that cost as much as 600 dollars were passed out to Marines at Camp Lejeune in North Carolina, Parris Island in South Carolina, Reserve Command in New Orleans and Central Command in Tampa, Florida.
One of the Marines going to the game said he felt "like a kid on Christmas Day."
