Superbowl Trees in Boston

Ken Lewis, CEO of Bank of America recently made good on a bet he had with Chad Gifford, Chairman for the company and former head of Fleet Boston, which merged with B of A. Fortunately for the city of Boston, Gifford won the bet, which was based on the Patriot's win over the Carolina Panthers in the Superbowl last winter. The two men joined Boston's mayor and one of the New England Patriot's star players at a tree-planting ceremony in which 38 North Carolina dogwood trees were put in Boston's Franklin Park.
