PODIATRISTS IN THE COMMUNITY- PART 1

KY Podiatrist is Finalist to Win Super Bowl Tickets in NFL Contest

 

A Louisville cancer survivor who's also a proud Trinity football dad is getting national attention. Dr. Gary Degen took part in a National Football League contest and from thousands of entries, he's one of ten finalists. Degen saw the contest on NFL.com to win tickets to the 2014 Super Bowl. He held up his cell phone and shot a one-minute video about what football means to him. Soon, an NFL film crew was at Trinity High School telling his story that football is about much more than a game.

"People I don't know are praying for me and are asking me what's going on? What can we do?" he said, "Regardless of the story, the story is that this is a family based on faith, family and football; this is my family." That's why Gary Degen loves football. It's easy to see why the Louisvillian was chosen out of so many entries as a finalist. You can vote for him on NFL.com. If he wins, he gets three tickets to the Super Bowl.
