While many were pleased, thrilled or even tickled pink by the Pittsburgh Steelers earning a berth in Super Bowl XL, few have enjoyed the moment as much as Clarkston High School Aquatics Director Kenwyn Chock ? who born and raised in the steel city has been in a euphoric state for over a week now. But as the seconds ticked down on the Steelers AFC championship victory another challenge lay in front of Chock.
‘As soon as they won the AFC championship I went online to the whole school system asking for tickets,? Chock said.
Chock’s prayers were answered. Within 20 minutes she was put in touch with someone who sold her four tickets at face value, $500 a piece.
While her tale may not be as compelling as Jerome Bettis? return to his hometown to close his career, Chock is ever thankful her team is in this year’s game.
‘I’ve always dreamed of seeing them play in the Super Bowl. It’s fate for me to follow my team to the Super Bowl here,? Chock said.
