An appearance in the NFC Championship Game happens only a few times in a lifetime, and that is really only the case if you are a fan of the Green Bay Packers. The fans of most teams cannot even say that much. For that reason, Packers’ all-time leading wide receiver Donald Driver is determined to make the dreams of four lucky fans become a reality.

“Packers fans are the best in the world. I know how much our fans can make a difference in the outcome of a big game — so I want to send some die hard Packers fans out to Seattle to help bring home a victory.  Let’s all support the team while raising money for a great cause,” Driver said, according to Fox 6 Milwaukee.

It is no secret Packers fans travel better than any other team in football. That is why it is important to have as many fans as possible in attendance at CenturyLink Field to cheer Green Bay on when they take on the Seattle Seahawks with a Super Bowl berth at stake.

Starting today until noon on Friday, Jan. 16, Packers fans can buy $2.00 raffle tickets that will benefit the Donald Drive Foundation. The winner of the raffle will receive some seriously amazing prizes, with the ultimate prize being a trip to the NFC Championship game for the winner and three guests.

The following is a list of the prizes the winner will receive, courtesy of netraffle.org:

  • Winner and 3 guests will enjoy 4 tickets to the NFC Championship Game between the Seattle Seahawks and Green Bay Packers (CenturyLink Field, Sunday, January 18th, 3:05 PM ET)
  • Winner will receive a Green Bay Packers helmet autographed by Donald Driver
  • Winner and each guest will receive a copy of Donald Driver’s New York Times bestselling memoir “Driven” autographed by Donald Driver

  • Winner and 3 guests will enjoy two night’s hotel accommodations (Saturday, January 17, 2014 & Sunday, January 18, 2014, 2 rooms, double occupancy)
  • Winner will receive a $1,000 allowance for ground transportation, meals, and other expenses
  • Winner will be awarded a cash prize in the amount of $3,325.00 to mitigate the winner’s tax liability that results from winning the raffle. This prize is withheld and paid, on behalf of the winner, directly to the Internal Revenue Service ($2,800.00) and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts ($525.00). CFC reserves the right to adjust the value of this prize item depending on the actual value of prizes received

A winner will be chosen on Friday in order for them to have plenty of time to get to Seattle for the NFC title game.
