Blood donor headed to Super Bowl

LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Carol Sikler is going to the Super Bowl and all it took was blood — and lots of it.

The Indiana woman wins a pair of tickets to the big game for being a blood donor.

The Indiana Blood Center says she’s donated more 140 units of whole blood or blood products.

She says she became a regular blood donor to repay the units used by her late husband.

Sikler tells the Journal and Courier she’s an Indianapolis Colts fan.

But she says Sunday she’ll be rooting for Eli Manning and the New York Giants.
