Man donates life Savings so others can see

[Guest Frank_Nabbit]

The syndicated entertainment news show "Access Hollywood" put a surprised Mel Gibson on the phone with Arch Bonnema, the Plano, Texas, man who purchased 6,000 tickets at a price of $42,000 to Gibson's film, "The Passion of The Christ" so that fellow parishioners at his local Baptist church, theology students and other could see the film.

 

Gibson, who had not yet heard about Bonnema's $42,000 ticket purchase, said it was "amazing" that someone would do something so selfless.

umm...

 

Idiot. They could have spent the $9.00 themselfs.

[Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes]

What a fucking moron. God lover or not, thats retarded. If I knew sooner, I'd find out where he bought the tickets and rob the motherfuckers.

 

<<<Needs money.

Not everyone has nine dollars to spend on a movie.

 

Sounds silly, but it's true.

Well, hopefully Mel will give this dude his money back. God knows he's going to make oodles off of the movie, what's $42,000?

A new car he'd probably crash in a week.

Gibson shouldn't give jackshit back.

 

The guys probably really a millionaire who can afford to give away $42,000. The life savings story sounds better.

Since the guy's from Plano, that's probably the case.

It would just be a nice gesture if Gibson did give it back since he will make a gazillion dollars off of the movie. Of course, if the guy is a millionaire then he doesn't need it, but if it were his life savings Gibson would probably pay it back. Either way, I don't see why he "shouldn't".
