As the Patriots prepare to square off against the Denver Broncos in the AFC championship game, one woman is celebrating a major milestone. 

Long time Patriots fan Jeanne Johnson of Quincy, who turns 100 next month, sent the team a birthday card, hoping to get as many players as possible to sign it. 

The card came with a letter from her grandson, who quoted her saying," I may be near 100 years old, but there’s nothing wrong with these eyes! Have you seen the uniforms they make those boys wear? That Gronk Boy (sic) in those tight pants? I have to watch!"

Johnson said she became a football fan watching her two sons play the game. 

Several Patriots players were happy to sign her birthday card.
