Man Who Broke into a School to Save 20 People in Blizzard Gets Super Bowl Tickets from Buffalo Bills [View all]
A man who may have saved the lives of 24 people by breaking into a school in Cheektowaga, upstate NY during the ‘worst storm in a generation’ has been given Super Bowl Tickets by his hometown team.
Jay Withey, the 27-year-old mechanic and hero, received the reward for his live-saving actions from the Buffalo Bills in collaboration with Blue Cross Blue Shield.
Legendary former Bills running back Thurman Thomas personally delivered the surprise to Withey on Friday
“We love you. We know what you did on Christmas Eve was very heroic, and you’re our hero,” Thurman told Withey in a video released by the team.
“I can’t believe how far [the news of his deed] got. I got thank you letters from Australia, it’s wild,” says Withney.

I think I just became a Bills fan. I had posted about the heroism of this man at the time it happened. It is wonderful to see he is being rewarded for his actions in possibly saving lives.
