I saw this guy on one of those Lottery Winners tv shows.He bought 7 homes for family members.His daughter son-in-law had a house built that is a copy of Elvis Preslys Graceland.He bought some property and built a small chapel in memory of his wife.Seems like a real nice guy,but awful lonely.I hope all of that tv exposure doesn't put him in danger.

Alex Snelius remains true to team he and his late wife loved

If you're a faithful viewer of White Sox television broadcasts, you've heard the name Alex Snelius, and most of you have probably wondered who he is.

Snelius is synonomous with White Sox home runs. Every time they go yard, he donates $100 dollars in memory of his wife, Ursula, who was a huge Sox fan.
