The internet somehow survived the cataclysmic event that was the St. Louis Rams seventh round draft pick sacking the Cleveland Browns backup quarterback but one person came out of the play with a lighter wallet.
Twitter user @squareknight made a prediction/bet before the preseason game between the Browns and Rams. The wager was a hefty one:
Rams vs Browns tonight. If Michael Sam sacks Johnny Football & gives the money sign, drinks are on me. For everyone in the world. Forever.

After the sack, one of two which Sam recorded against the Browns, @squareknight realized that his bet was not particularly doable as his tweet went viral. So, he decided to make the best of his situation:
Anyone know Sam's fave charity? So pumped he sacked JFF. If I can't perpetually intoxicate society, I can contribute to its betterment.

Sam heard about the wager and he decided to give the fan a suggestion for a charity, a suggestion which @squareknight proudly took:
I heard there was a drink offer… In lieu of that @SquareKnight the Boys & Girls Club of Greater STL could use help! pic.twitter.com/qzseOXJfED

Well done and much appreciated! MT @SquareKnight Proud to have made a donation to the STL Boys & Girls Club in honor of Sam's great play

In an interview with ESPN (because if anyone was going to cover every aspect of this monumental moment of preseason football, it’d be ESPN), @squareknight stated that he donated $500.
And somehow, this has been the preseason sack which has kept on giving.
