Charles Hauboldt, a Texas funeral home owner, wants nothing more than to see his Houston Texans bury the Baltimore Ravens’ Super Bowl drive at this Sunday’s big game at M&T Bank Stadium. He’ll get his chance as the winning bidder for a playoff ticket auctioned by a Texas Catholic priest and rabid Ravens’ fan.
Hauboldt’s high bid of $2,115 won him the ticket, a flight to Baltimore, lodging and ground transportation – not to mention the chance to sit next to Trinitarian Father Stan DeBoe, the man who put the ticket up for grabs. The money will be used to help purchase a bus for Father DeBoe’s parish, Our Lady of Sorrows in Victoria, Texas.

Sounds like Hauboldt will have a great time visiting the city of purple. From my understanding, watching the Ravens play at home is a fabulous experience... great food, psyched fans and NOISE! GO RAVENS!
I lIKE the Ravens...but I would have liked them more if they had stayed in Cleveland where God put them.
Too bad the business side of football gets in the way.
PS: I’m not from Cleveland.
A $2,000 dollar bus is going to be pretty raggedy.LOL
We’re NOT giving them back! (LOL!!)
My advice to the funeral director:
Stay away from this priest!
