Travis is the man. :encouragement:
Hopefully it inspires people across the country.
Good parents no doubt.
I hope karma helps him get his ass into the NFL, he deserves it.

The small act of kindness was picked up by both local and national newspapers. Rudolph, one of several players visiting the school that day, said he wasn't expecting the huge reaction.

"We just had a great conversation. He started off, telling me his name was Bo, telling me how much he loves Florida State. We went from there,'' said the West Palm Beach, Florida, native, now beginning his junior season.

"I just wanted to go say hi to the kid, because I saw him eating alone. I didn't even know anybody took a photo of it,'' he said. "I'm glad it can bring awareness to helping others.''

"It was real easy... you'd never think anything was wrong with him. He had a nice smile on his face. Just a really warm person."

Leah Paske says her son now has no shortage of lunch companions, and "everyone was super welcoming."

Bo was also excited by all the attention. "It's been awesome. Everyone was so proud of me,'' he said.

With all the negative shit we hear it's nice to get a positive story like this. If he ever makes the NFL I will buy his jersey - unless it's the Giants, Patriots or Vikings :)

I saw this story on the national news. I hate to admit this but it made me cry.

That young man has a ton of character. He is going places regardless if it is a career in football or not.

School is a terrible place for an autistic kid. Children and teens can be the cruelest sons of bitches on the planet, and not all forms of autism render the child unable to comprehend that cruelty.

I wish I had the sense, courage and compassion this Travis guy showed when I was younger. Could have done a lot for a few unfortunate souls.
