Sarah Spain Makes Her Choice: Congrats, Alan

Congratulations are in order to Alan Shahtaji, who has been chosen by Bears fan Sarah Spain to accompany her to the Super Bowl. On her MySpace page, Sarah says she read over 1,300 submissions before choosing Shahtaji, who grew up in Homewood, Illinois and now lives in the Lincoln Park neighborhood of Chicago.

Spain, you'll recall, initially auctioned off the opportunity to take her to the Super Bowl on eBay. But when eBay pulled the auction, the makers of Tag AXE Body Spray stepped forward and gave her four tickets to the game: One for her, two for her friends, and one for the lucky guy she chose.

It's not clear what Shahtaji said in his essay to be chosen, but a Google search indicates that a year and a half ago, he was a second-year medical student. Yeah, guys, it's hard to compete with a doctor. With Leather is not pleased.
