I just made a run to the Shell station for a spot of fuel and some sundries. While in line at the register, the clerk remarks to a patron regarding his matching Texans hat and shirt. He inquired as to whether the gentleman was lucky enough to be in attendance at tomorrow's game.
As the garb-wearing fan reached for his wallet, he lets out a sigh and says "nope, gave my tickets to my neighbor so he could take his kid". The clerk then remarks on how selfless that gesture was, and he is going to miss an awesome game. Another sigh from dude as he collects his change. "I know, but the boy has cancer and may not get another chance". "Wow" says the clerk "that's a cool thing you did there". The guy just smiles and heads for the door.
"Wait", a woman's voice erupts from behind me, "you can take our tickets". She reaches in her purse, pulls out two tickets, what looked to be a parking pass, and hands them to dude. "You take these and have a good time. We have something that came up anyway". After a lot of "are you sure"'s, dude walks out with a smile on his face.
As I'm at the counter the attention is squarely focused on this lady and her gesture. "Our son passed away three years ago of cancer, we'll stay home and watch the game".
How cool is that?
