Wall Street "Fat Cat" Paid $240,000 To Attend Giants Game In Style

Have you heard? There is a momentous contest between two sporting teams of toned millionaires tomorrow, one of which hails from the Excelsior State! And 57-year-old Peter Serafin won't miss a minute, thanks to his $240,000, 20-hour trip across the country to Lambeau Field. Serafin, who shockingly works in finance, has filled a 70-foot RV with "two beautiful waitresses, a driver and even the executive chef at Old Homestead Steakhouse" to ferry himself and five friends to Wisconsin for the game. "It's exciting," he tells the Post, "It's like a dream come true." Yes, all our dreams involve 20 hours of being trapped in a metal box on the highway with fried chicken and "10 live lobsters."

Serafin, who is missing his 28th wedding anniversary with his wife to see the game, is a Green Bay fan, but doesn't mind sharing his five seats on the 30-yard-line with his friends. "Fortunately, my wife understood this is a one-shot deal." Two days sounds like plenty of time to thumb through New York Magazine's list of top divorce attorneys. And what happens if the Giants will? Will Serafin sue to reverse the outcome?

GOOGLE "peter serafin knickerbocker village" the same dude on this site ( looks and sounds just like him) ... he is living in a housing project on the lower east side. Taxpayer subsidized housing. NOW if this is true that should have been the headlines. Could this dude be going to the game on your dime?

Heh. Mr. Marmot is actually going to Lambeau tomorrow with some of his coworkers. I just laughed and told him to enjoy freezing his ass off with the Wisconsinites while I sit on the nice warm couch watching better angles of the action on our tv.

He's flying AirTran like a normal person, though. Who the hell would willingly drive to Green Bay from New York when they could fly? That's a good 15-hour drive by my estimation.

Guess you never heard of people enjoying road trips

Oh no, I love road trips. But having someone drive you from Point A to Point B in an excessively fancy RV is not a road trip. Road trips are when you get in your car, you drive, you stop interesting places, then you get back on the road. There's nothing road trip about this.
