Look: Kid cries happily after meeting Saints’ Drew Brees
For every sports fan, it’s a dream to meet the athletes on their teams. Sadly, many of us never get that change, while 99 percent of us do not get to meet the star player. It’s only something we can imagine.

But for one particular NFL fan, it was overwhelmingly awesome to meet New Orleans Saints star quarterback Drew Brees, and this video will simply make your day:

The boy is Hunter Glass, age 10, who suffers from cerebral palsy. It was obviously a huge moment to meet one of his heroes, and this is just another reason why some athletes should truly be respected and considered role models.
Not every professional athlete takes time out of their day to meet with fans. Lots of athletes have bad encounters with fans, but guys like Brees have always reached out to the community, and that’s a reason he is so well-respected.
One of the many reasons why I respect & admire @drewbrees so much @Saints https://t.co/dIa8YAlLpv

The NFL is not going to be the same when Brees retires. He’s absolutely one of the classiest and most likeable athletes of all-time.
