The football game was sold out. 50,000 screaming fans.
Down on the sideline, “Big T” a security guard, was supposed to be watching the crowd. But he was distracted.
A torrential downpour started in the 3rd quarter.
Huddled against the concrete wall of the stadium was a tiny, wet kitten that had wandered onto the field level. It was shaking, terrified by the noise and the rain.
Big T didn’t call animal control. He didn’t kick it out.
He turned his back to the field. He took his large yellow security poncho and held it open like a tent over the kitten. He stood there for the last 45 minutes of the game, getting soaked himself, creating a dry safe zone for the intruder.
A fan in the front row took a pic.
“”He ignored the touchdown to save a life,”” the caption read.
Kindness is doing the right thing when thousands of people are watching something else. 🏟️🐈
