EA Gives Young Lions Fan Cheated Out of A PS4 Copy of Madden A Special Gift

[RaychelSnr]

For the young 10-year-old Lions fan named Roman from Amarillo, Texas, the missed calls on the field in the Cowboy's game last Sunday were just the end of a day full of injustices. After entering and winning a musical chairs competition with the prize being a PS4 copy of Madden NFL 15, the Cowboys organizers saw Roman was wearing a Matthew Stafford jersey and re-did the competition which the Cowboys fan won.

Enter EA, who saw the video and decided to do something about this injustice, sending young Roman a PS4, a copy of Madden, and an autographed Lions helmet. A pretty cool gesture and good ending for what was a pretty lame stunt in Dallas last weekend.

I hated the Cowboys before this but this is just beyond words!

[Stormyhog]

That's pretty pathetic to do that to a young kid . Glad to see EA step up & right a wrong. Cowboys organizers have alot of growing up to do.

Nothing.

Read the story. It has nothing to do with any of that.

Again, read the story. I know one sentence referenced the calls but that's not at all what the story is about. I know it may seem complicated so I'll link the story here for you:

lmao did it really have to be a Cowboys fan that won? What a world. It's a 10-year old kid. That's so ridiculous and petty from the Cowboys' organization. A WTF moment.

[ggsimmonds]

Not cool to do that to a 10 year old. If it was a competition for older people then it would be fine.

A couple of years ago the Orioles celebrated Camden Yards by awarding the fan who was the X fan to show up at the ballpark. (I cannot remember the number). There were a lot of Redsox fans present so the O's rigged it to make sure that a Oriole fan won. That is fine, but what the Cowboys did was not.

Classy move, EA. The event organizers suck for doing that to a kid. I had no rooting interest before. But man I hope the Packers blast the Cowboys.
