Padres Baseball Team Keeps Disabled Pitcher on Payroll for 20 Yrs to Give Insurance
Since a heart attack left pitcher Matt LaChappa disabled with brain damage, the San Diego Padres have renewed his contract each year to give him health insurance.
Mats Zuccarello of the New York Rangers hockey team acted as the ultimate wingman for a high school senior intending to go to prom.
The NHL hockey greats were warming up before Monday night's game against the Columbus Blue Jackets when 18-year-old Vinny Munroe held up a sign from the stands reading "Zucc! If you give me your stick, she'll go to prom with me!!!"
The ‘she' in question is Vinny's best friend of three years and girlfriend of one month Catherine De Pinho from Connetquot High School.
Once Mats managed to read the sign, not only did he hand over his stick to the lucky fan, but he signed the poster and stick with "Have fun at prom– treat her right!!"
The Rangers went on to score a 2-1 victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets and Vinny scored a big date with the girl of his dreams.
