An English Soccer Fan Loved Norwich City So Much He Left $130 In His Will To Buy The Players A Round Of Drinks After He Died

[Source] - “He always told me that he would give £100 to the players in his will,” Greaves’ youngest daughter, Dr. Sarah Greaves, told the Press. “He wanted to give it to them to thank them for their entertainment through the good times and the bad.

Call me crazy but this is exactly what wills are for. I'm going through this now actually since somehow I'm a father and have to be responsible and make sure that my family is okay. But, now? You better believe I'm leaving money for a round of drinks for Kentucky hoops/football at Two Keys. I'm leaving a round of drinks for the Orioles at Pickles. I'm leaving a round of drinks for the Giants at a New York bar. I'm leaving a round of drinks for the Knicks, actually fuck that, I'm not doing anything for them until Dolan is gone. 

This is what being a fan is all about. Thanking a team for entertainment for good times and bad. God knows I know that with all those teams I listed. But am I going to spend 365 days a year watching one of these teams and likely being frustrated? You bet your ass I will. 

This is just perfect for English soccer too. This is exactly what I think every supporter over there does for their team. They are lunatics over there. They make SEC football fans look like nothing. I just assume every single person there has a tattoo of their favorite club and something in the will to go to them. 

Love this move so much and good for Norwich City to get the drinks and tweet it out. It'll take some heat off of them being dead last in the EPL and likely getting relegated. Alcohol does that.
