AIK Fan Spends £16,500 To Become World's First Lifetime Season Ticket Holder

It has been confirmed that Swedish club AIK have sold their first ever 'Eternity card' for £16,500.

AIK supporter Magnus Käck, who clearly looks delighted by his latest purchase, will be granted access to all home league games for the rest of his life after spending thousands on the card.

Käck isn't just your average fan.

According to AIK president Eric Ljunggren, he was the flag bearer at AIK vs Kalmar. He also helped with supplies in the forest fires in Sweden,-and personally participated in the rescue work.

The super-fan is also entitled to any seat he wants in the Friends Arena, if he desires to do so, so he won't get bored of the same old view. Brilliant.

In an interview with TV4 Sport, Magnus explained how it all came about.

"I asked Stefan (Commercial Manager) how many eternity cards AIK had sold, but he said nobody had bought a card yet. I was tempted immediately when the offer was launched three weeks before. I have a (standard, yearly) season card and am a permanent member of the club."

Kack says he has no kids of his own, so the AIK eternity card is a 'substitute':

"It has been awesome to have an eternity card, and even better to enter the history books as the first. Nobody remembers a second

"I have been working since I was 15 and have had better financial opportunities in recent years. So in that way it's cool. I have no kids of my own, so in that way AIK has become kind of a substitute."

Would you buy an 'eternity card' if your club decided to release them?
