The letter from the anonymous Vikings fan explained he won the tickets at a charity auction held by Spare Key, an organization that assists the families of sick children. After the Minnesota Vikings lost to Eagles in the NFC championship game, he decided to let the organization give the tickets to a fan who would enjoy watching the game.

The Star Tribune reports that other Minnesota sports teams got involved as well. The Timberwolves and Minnesota Wild gave them tickets to upcoming home games.

Cole's battle to overcome neuroblastoma was featured in local news reports many of which detailed his resolve to defeat cancer and work toward his dream of working for an NFL team.

He dreams of being on an NFL team’s staff, and is already a team manager on his junior high school’s football team. He’s an avid sports fan, and also cheers for the Philadelphia Phillies and the Flyers.

Cole thanked the Vikings fan and wished the team better luck next year.
