A Delray Beach man is looking to take a veteran to the Elton John concert next week.
John Fischer, who is a retired firefighter, said this is an item on his bucket list. He has wanted to take a wounded warrior veteran to a concert. Fischer is also a fan of Elton John who is performing at the BB&T Center next week for his farewell tour.
Fischer said the tickets are in the front section of the arena and spent about $1,000 each on them.
He said this is a way to say thank you to someone who has served.
“I wanted to do something big, and this is big; to me, this is a bucket list item that will really an impact for me personally,” Fischer said.
He said he hopes he can find a wounded warrior vet that is willing to go to the concert with a stranger. The concert is next Friday, November 23.
