Ouida Wright of Green Bay, Wisconsin, won two tickets to the Super Bowl from the Dallas Convention & Visitors Bureau. Because Ouida and her boyfriend are homeless, the DC & VB threw in airfare.
Ouida says her house went into foreclosure when her husband left her. She's been offered $10,000 for the tickets which she turned down. With $10,000, she could at least put up a deposit and get a place to stay for a few months so she would have an address to give a prospective employer. Instead, she's flying to Texas for one afternoon of fun. Maybe there's a reason her house was foreclosed and she doesn't have a job.
