So this is pretty loosely based on football so bear with me. When the iPhone 6 came out I bought one on the day of release. I had always taken the free upgrade from Verizon but this time I figured what the hell. Anyway, in 20 some years of cell phone use, I have never dropped, lost or damaged a cell phone in anyway. But while waiting to purchase a $700 cell phone, I saw this:
An awesome Packers phone case! So naturally I bought this as well. Now yesterday about an hour before game time, the wifey accidentally knocked my cheap Motorola pad of the table onto the floor and cracked the screen. So off to Verizon I went and bought a really nice 13" iPad.
I drive taxi and I got home this morning and while getting out of the van I realized that I did not have my phone. So in the house I ran and activated the find my iPhone app on my fancy new pad and my phone appears to be sitting in the middle of the busiest road in town. Ugh...
Grabbed my pad and drove to my phone fully expecting the worst as if it is exactly where the app says it is, it has been run over literally hundreds of times. So I arrive and sure enough, it is sitting in one of the four lanes and I watched it be run over about 5 times while I flip on the hazards, block traffic and retrieve my phone. Other than tire tracks all over it that I cleaned off, phone is none the worse for wear. I use my thumb print to unlock it and:
Perfect working condition! So there you have it because of a phone case I never would have bought, except for the fact that it was a Packers case, saved me from basically losing my mind due to my phone being completely destroyed after being run over hundreds of times.
Anyone else ever had your love of the Packers save you from something bad happening to you?
