Fantastic story from action-packed Oregon in the USA. After a disappointing loss to Boise State in the pointed ball football, an angry Oregon Ducks fan sent the coach an invoice for his travel costs, ticket price, etc. From ESPN:
Seminary, an Oregon alumnus from the Portland area, attended the game in Boise. According to the Web site everydayshouldbesaturday.com, he was so unhappy with what he saw, he sent Ducks coach Chip Kelly an e-mail, with an attached invoice for $439 in travel expenses.
“The product on the field Thursday night is not something I was at all proud of, and I feel as though I’m entitled to my money back for the trip,” he wrote, according to the Web site.
According to the Web site, Kelly replied to Seminary’s e-mail with a question: “What is your address?”
Sure enough, a check for $439, apparently signed by Kelly, arrived in Seminary’s mailbox.

So – my retirement is taken care of. I reckon even if I could get 1% of the $439 this guy got for every disappointing, heartbreaking performance the Tigers put in, I’ll be set up for life!
