Mark Cuban kudos!

My mom is going into "very touchy" surgery the day after her birthday in a couple of weeks and Mark Cuban comped her tickets to tonight's Mavericks game!

Salute Mr. Cuban!

Thanks, all. She turns 89 the day before the surgery and every one on her side of the family makes it into their 90s. (Well, except for my grandfather who was a heavy smoker.)

My sister and BiL were just looking to get tickets down low since she would have a hard time getting to the nose-bleed section, but they were sold out. Cuban told my sister, via email, to check in at the will-call window. When she did she learned that there was no charge.

PHX won, though.

Pat

That's prety freaking cool. I like Mark Cuban. I am glad your mom had a good time. I hope all is well with her.

I will certainly be praying for her and her upcoming surgery as well as believing for her to have a complete and quick recovery.

Thanks! It was today and she just got out of surgery an hour ago. Doc is optimistic.

Again, thanks to all here!
