Phyllis Patterson is 78 years old, lives at the Beaumont Rehabilitation and Skilled Nursing Center in Northbridge, MA.
She is also an avid fantasy football participant.
In just two months, attendance at televised Sunday afternoon games in the third-floor common room at the Nursing Center has doubled, and about a dozen seniors between the ages of 77 and 93 earn points weekly depending on the performance of their NFL teams.
