Roger Goodell Surprises LifeBridge Health Doctor With Super Bowl LV Tickets
BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- As health care workers across the country battle the coronavirus, one Maryland doctor -- a diehard Ravens fan -- got the surprise of a lifetime over the weekend.
LifeBridge Health Dr. Hazim El-Haddad got a very unexpected call from NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell inviting him to Super Bowl LV in Tampa.
El-Haddad was surprised by the call but very humble when telling WJZ about the experience.
"I'm not so silly as to say no to Super Bowl tickets, but I feel like I can think of 1,000 people more deserving than myself," he said. "Even my nurses and techs, they're out — we go by and they're treating patients, they're in there every day, if they can't work in their current department, they get switched to another department, they're working really hard, too."
El-Haddad had submitted a video for the NFL's Inner Circle experience to get to be featured cheering on the Ravens during the NFL Draft.
He certainly got a lot more than that!
