Birthday gift

So my SO of 4yrs is a big football fan. Every Sunday during football season, you can’t get him from infront the TV. So this year I decided to buy tickets for a really popular rival game. I got great seats on home team side. They were super expensive but I didn’t care. His birthday isn’t until next month so I was saving the surprise until then. But we were watching espn lastnight and I got really excited and just told him….. he was not impressed or excited at all. Basically said he didn’t want to go. Said a few years before we started dating that he had been to several home games.. i didn’t know.. honestly just bummed out.. I was really excited doing this for him but I’m honestly glad I said something now then waiting until his birthday ☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️
