Free Redskins game ticket! - Red Cross:Give blood, get one free game ticket

[onedrop]

this is great community work by the Skins, elfin can suck it, and what will romo and company get for bleeding all over FedEx field Sept. 12th?

[Titaw]

So does this mean when I give blood tomorrow I get a ticket to the opener?

[fullnelson9999]

The September 3rd blood drive is completely booked! However I just made an appointment for the drive on September 10th in Mantissas. The lady I spoke with on the phone said that it was 30% booked so far. If anyone wants to jump on that I recommend it.

I'll look forward to sitting way up in the nosebleeds by myself. If anyone wants to make an appointment around noon you might get the seat next to me.

What the Red Cross is NOT telling us is that the blood is delivered directly to Daniel Snyder, who drinks it in Satanic rituals conducted nightly deep in the bowels of his evil lair in Potomac.

I'll give them a free ticket if they'll stop adding me to their telephone-list every time I give blood. 4 weeks after the last time I give blood it turns into reminder calls every other day that I'm eligible again and they want me to come back in. Every time I have to tell them to stop calling me and remove me from their phone list, but every time I donate again right back on the list I go.

Too bad it's all booked. I'd have given blood for a ticket.

You should so they can stop blowing my home and work phone up. (O-Neg as well)

Eww they call you at home and at work? Can't you ask them to stop?

Also: do you have to give them those numbers or can you be like, "I heard you call previous donors incessantly, so I'll give you my blood , but not my number?"

[Stugein]

Can't you ask them to stop?

You can ask them to stop, and they will, but only until you give blood again. Giving blood reactivates your number on the "please call me daily to let me know that I can donate again" list.

I've stopped answering unknown calls because of this. Do you just actually talk to someone and tell them to stop calling?

When they call you to get you to try to make an appointment, just tell the person on the phone to have your number pulled from the list and to stop calling you. They'll honor it and stop calling you until you give blood again.

I see.

Now for the important question: does it hurt?

I see.

Have you ever had a toothpick forcibly jammed up under your big toenail?

I kid. Seriously it's not a big deal. You feel a jab for all of 2 seconds, if that, that's no worse than getting a shot. You really don't even feel it once it's in. After you're done the spot might be kinda sore for a little bit. Free cookies and juice, and you've helped save a life. Totally worth the 2 seconds of discomfort imo.

[RFKFedEx]

Can people request to have two seats together if you donate at the same time?

I assume the TO wouldn't seat people alone at the game after donating blood.

I've donated probably 15-20x in my life and beyond the initial stick, it's not bad. They also stick your finger and draw a tiny pipeete during the screening to measure your iron level....

In addtion to free tix, snacks, and juice, you can get free stuff off this website:

BTW, they shouldn't be calling you every 4 weeks as you can give no more than once every 8 weeks. I can see them calling you though if you have O neg as there currently is a short supply of that...hmmm.....maybe you can get 2 tix or a club seat
