All Lions and friends,

Only 37 tickets remain available in our special lower reserved Lions section for the PAC12 Football Championship Game, Levi’s Stadium, 5 PM, Friday, December 1, 2017.   The tickets are available to the public at $90 but we are offering at $50 as a fund raiser for Diabetes Youth Families (DYF) and camp scholarships.  $15 of each $50 ticket sold goes to DYF.  These remaining few tickets will sell fast, so please purchase now.  
  
Stanford will be playing against USC.  Remember, USC has the inspirational long snapper, Jake Olson, who is totally blind. ESPN will be televising nationally.

...[I]mmediately below is the website link to purchase tickets.  Our Lions tickets are only available online.  Purchase online, print for scanning, and bring to the game.

Expect Lions tail gate details in a future email.

​For Lions, this is a hugely important corporate partnership opportunity with the PAC12 university system and Levi’s Stadium Management where they are co-promoting our elite relationship.  Please know that we are already positioning Lions Clubs International for next year's NCAA National Football Championship game which will be held at our own Levi’s Stadium, Santa Clara.  


Please go online and purchase your tickets now, share this email and promote with your friends and neighbors, and let’s have some Lions fun.

Why not just send $15 to the DYF and watch the game from your house? 

There are travel expences, lodging expences, food expences, and more expences. There is the $50 ticket.All these expences just to donate $15 to DYF.

Do you really want to experience security theatre when you attend the game? Do you really want somebody treating you as a potential security threat just because you show up? 

Far better to just donate directly to DYF. You can donate $50 and view the game from the comfort of your house. DYF gets $50 instead of $15 and you get none of the aggravation that attending the game would impose upon you. It's a win-win.

LIONS is about loving individuals offering nutritive services....corporations are just institutions through which individuals work....this emphasis on corporate options is contrary to what LIONS is about.....
