Pretty much the nicest surprise ever.

Okay, I get home and my mom gives me an odd letter that had come for me. It's got no return address. Well I open it and see that there is a gift certificate for $115 to the local gym (For anything, membership or shop)

The enclosed letter said something like Dear Ben, This is to help you continue on your quest for excellence. You are a great leader and an intense competitor and so forth and take this and let it help you get even bette. Yadda, Yadda, Yadda. Signed Anonymous former St Pat's high football player.

Man was that ever a pleasant surprise.

Careful...

[Arch52]

Careful...
you mean like someone is gonna start paying for having great games like ocassionally happens in the college, while he is playing. I see no harm done by this act during this time period... but i guess i kinda get at what you are saying.

Just watch out for people who might want to end your career by exposing something like this, and check your H.S. state rules to see if this gift was legal.

[Backa53]

Yeah. The first thing I thought of was stuff like Lebron James and Jeremy Bloom's cases. But I think I'm safe. And I don't think Canadian High Schools have rules like that anyway. And if I do get interest from NCAA and they do try to get me on it I'm sure I can pass it off as a gift I received around christmas.
