Young football fan accidentally meets his hero at the airport

play

A 9-year-old football fan had a dream encounter while traveling through an airport.

Nasir was strolling through the airport concourse in Detroit with his father, Sulaiman Mausi, on his way to his flight. A huge Detroit Lions fan, Nasir proudly wore his colors, a Lions jersey with the number of his favorite player, Aidan Hutchinson.

Hutchinson, who plays defensive end, is a fan favorite and one of the league’s rising stars. Football experts at si.com see him as a future MVP.

But as he struggled through the hustle and bustle of the airport with his mother Melissa and sister Mia, Hutchinson was happy to blend in with the crowd and be just an anonymous traveler. At least until Nasir walked past him in Aidan’s jersey.

Although the little boy didn’t realize he had just passed by his idol, Aidan and his family recognized a diehard young Lion, and the NFL star got into fan mode and decided to make Nasir happy.
