Season ticket charity challenge

My name is Chase Hoffman, and I'm from Austin, Texas.

I also am an ardent supporter of the finest FC in the world - Blackburn Rovers.

I realize y'all don't share that opinion, but I'm not here to troll, but with a challenge for you lot.

The Blackburn fans are organizing a drive to purchase season tickets to support our club. Most of us who are doing this are not in the UK and therefore won't make it to many matches. We want to support our club, but we don't want empty seats at Ewood. So we're working with Rovers to purchase a block of seats and donate them to a school or charity, or have Rovers distribute them in some fashion (the details aren't all worked out yet).

I'm here to challenge you lot to do the same (for Liverpool, obviously, though if you want to buy Rovers tickets then I won't stop you). I think it would be a great idea, it's for a worthy cause, and it helps all our clubs.

I'm also challenging the other Prem team supporters to engage in this, and I'm trying to work out some sort of prize for the winning club - probably a sterling silver coffee cup or somesuch (hey, it's more impressive than the Carling Cup).

We're working on a website to track progress, though it will be on the honor system since we expect the supporters of each individual club to handle the buying of the tickets and the charity or school to which they are donated.  Please feel free to cross post this message to any other forum or message board, but please do include my email address: driftpeasant@driftpeasant.org so that I can keep track of who's doing what, and cut down on duplicate efforts for the same team.

I look forward to hearing from you.
