What a class act!
I have been to that link several times and I can't find where to buy a chance on the ring. What am I missing here?
Scroll to the bottom where it says 'Order Raffle Tickets"...click on the red square and it'll walk you through the "yes, I'm over 18" thing and then your order form.
That is awesome and for a great cause!!
I do have to say, if I won, I would melt that sucker down and have some great jewelry (perhaps a V.Shianco jersey) :)
Seriously though, that is awesome the Saints are doing so much for the community.

I think if I won it I'd put it on eBay and donate the $$ right back to the same cause. Get a cycle going!
Of course, my teenager would kill me.
