This last weekend I drove up to Salt Lake to attend the BYU vs USF basketball game at Energy Solutions Arena. As we approached the stadium, we were stopped behind cars and I noticed a homeless man on the sidewalk ahead of us, holding a sign that said, "Homeless-Anything will help." Usually when I see people on the street, I don't stop and just continue on my way, but for some reason I was in better spirits and decided to help him out. I pulled out my wallet and found that I only had one dollar in cash. I pulled the dollar bill out, but felt I needed to contribute more. Since I didn't have any more cash, I decided to give him my ticket to the game. The snow made it extremely cold outside, so the arena would give him a warmer place to go. I felt a great sense of happiness knowing I helped someone out, even if it was just something small.
I got to the stadium along with my friends, and with our all-sports passes we were able to get 4 more tickets next to each other. We entered the arena and found our seats. To our surprise we were on the 7th row in the lower bowl seating of the stadium! They were absolutely great seats and we had a great time at the game (which of course ended with a BYU victory)! Now, I don't know if we were blessed with better seats because we gave to a homeless man, but i would like to think so.
