Hey Everyone,

Made an account on here last year after John, who most of you knew as cheesehead passed away. Anyways, before he passed, he and I made a deal to visit a different stadium every year. We started at Lambeau, and then didn’t get to see a game in 2020. Unfortunately, we never had the chance in 2021. Last year, at his funeral, we decided that we were going to keep the tradition going and went to a game in Minnesota sporting jerseys with his name and the day he passed away. I also went to a game with some friends at lambeau sporting t shirts over our jackets. This year, we are traveling to DC to check out the Packers vs Commanders (still feels weird typing it) game. If anyone is in the area or wants to meet up with I few of his buddies in real life feel free to reach out. We can’t begin to thank you all enough for your outpouring of support over the last year. Hope you’re all well and excited for football season, I know John is.

RIP my boy John, but I think we played dota together a couple of times (refering to you)
I am fairly close to DC and my brother is a Packers fan, I will shoot him a text here shortly and see if he wants to go to that game, he's never been to a Packers game afaik.

I still play Dota from time to time. One thing I haven’t been able to give up. Nah few of our good friends still hop on from time to time. If you guys go, DM me and I’ll send you my cell! Would love to meet up!

Thanks for this tribute, I didn’t know John too well besides playing fantasy with him, he was a great part of the jsp community though glad to see you doing something in his memory, a good reminder to us all that tomorrow isn’t guaranteed.

Much love brother! I am the one who came to visit John from Michigan and we went to a concert, and I stayed in the hotel there in Milwaukee that Jess was working at. We were planning on going to the Metal Tour of the Year so he could see In Flames and Trivium. I had Guinness in his seat, it sucks that we will never be able to go to another event with John, but you carrying on the tradition of him meeting JSP people is cool in my book!
This was us after he and Pete taught me about bar dice!
