I think I remember a similar story from the US once.  :cool:
Me too, a guy out on parole (or maybe it was on the run) won a jackpot at the lottery. He had been forbidden to gamble for money during that time as part of the sentence, so in addition to going back into the slammer, the millions was forfeit to the state  :pinchL

One would think that Bills tickets would be sufficient punishment.

Sitting in Ralph Wilson Stadium in the winter would be considered cruel and unusual punishment.   :uffda:

The fans of the Bills are weird people. The team hasn't been to the play-offs in almost a decade and they still have as good if not better attendance than when the team went to all the Superbowls.

That isn't weird, that is being actual fans. I am not much of a Bills fan myself, but I certainly have a lot more respect for Bills fans than I do your typical Dallas/Pats/Ravens fans, who are all about 95% bandwagoners.
