One of the Guys from the "Never Missed a Super Bowl" Club is Dead

Rest in peace, weekend warrior.

We envy the "Never Missed A Super Bowl" club—the group of guys who used a series of Visa commercials last season to tell us all about how they never missed a Super Bowl Sunday. Here we are, struggling to get our girls to let us watch five minutes of football in peace every Sunday, and these guys are blowing the bank (and the college fund...and the pension...and the rainy-day cash) on a ticket to the Super Bowl every year. Unfortunately, the club will be a man down come 2012, as Bob Cook—a lifelong Packers fan who was forced to miss this year's SB due to an illness—has died. A sad story for sure, but it's nice to hear that the Pack made sure he went out on top. [via Fox Sports]
