Bud Adams Treats Soldiers to Super Bowl

Posted: Updated:

FORT CAMPBELL, Ky.-  While Tom Brady's incompletions may have cost the New England Patriots a chance at another Super Bowl victory, the completion of certain tasks and service at Ft. Campbell earned more than two dozen soldiers a free trip to the big game to see it.

Eli Manning and the Giants one-upped Tom Brady and the Patriots again, coming back with a last-minute touchdown to beat New England 21-17 Sunday night for New York's fourth Super Bowl title.

It was a rematch of the 2008 NFL championship, when Manning led New York past New England to ruin the Patriots' bid for a perfect season.

Thanks to Titans Owner Bud Adams, 33 Fort Campbell soldiers got to see it all in person in Indianapolis.

The soldiers who were celebrating have all earned Non-commissioned Officer, and Soldier of the Year awards.
