So in the days leading up to the big game, the man contacted Spare Key, an organization which connects critically ill children and their families with the services they need. He asked them to find a football fan who would truly enjoy the game. They found 13-year-old Cole Fitzgerald in the Philly metro area.
Cole was diagnosed with neuroblastoma in a decade ago. The illness and its treatments left him with hearing loss and lifelong joint problems, so he is unable to play sports, especially his beloved football. He manages his junior high's football team and cheers from the sidelines at every game. And of course, he watches the Eagles. His bedroom is flocked with Eagles fan gear and posters.
Thanks to this anonymous donor, Cole got to see his Eagles win the Super Bowl championship in person.
