I posted this in the MU thread, but this transcends football.

Linda Wallace has never been to prom.

As a senior at Fayette High School, Linda's teacher, Bridget Hussey, wanted her to go. So Hussey thought to herself, "What would make Linda dance?"

Linda, who suffers from cerebral palsy, loves Mizzou Football. One simple phone call landed two dates to remember: wide receiver T.J. Moe and quarterback Corbin Berkstresser.

The two instantly agreed to escort Linda and surprised her Saturday night. Linda dressed in black, with Tiger nail polish, matching her two Tiger dates. The three were announced in front of the town at Fayette, took plenty of pictures, and of course, danced the night away at prom.

this is awesome. Something she will never forget. Need to see a good story like this once in a while

That's pretty a pretty heart-warming story. Well, except for Junior's.

what did they mean by "she's gonna love them even more tonight"? That's a girl.

I thought it said porn

dam wind blowing dust all over today, got in my eyes.



:deevee:

awesome. that kid will never ever forget that.

Very cool. Props to everyone who made that happen. Hope she got some QB lovin at the end of the night.

Great story. Props!

Who's cutting onions in here?

So much good in the world, nice to hear about it sometimes.

I can't begin to imagine the impact that had for that girl. probably made her decade!

I spent two years in Fayette and wanted to shoot myself in the chest for roughly 1.9 of them.

MU class

Well those 2 players are obviously not Missouri natives, they would never do something that nice.

Moe is from O'Fallon and Berk is from Lee's Summit, I believe.

Bazinga!


ROFL

Awwww... she gets all this love and KCnut gets ripped up one side and down the other.

We didn't have to read her writing.

Too fat. /Omaha

Why does the video call her Linda Watson and the article calls her Linda Wallace? SHENNANIGANS!!!!!

That's really outstanding.

Awesome

you know, except that it's wrong. BAZINGA

Wow, what a kick ass story, really cool.

I asked Jenna Jameson to prom, but never heard back.


bitch.

I love my Tigers. TJ Moe is a good guy especially.

Very nice of this kid to take two handicapped guys to prom.

































Kidding! I love stories like this.

I especially like this story since the woman in the desk next to me has a daughter with down's syndrome and she 'graduated' last weekend.

Her dad took her to prom and my desk neighbor, with friends, went dress shopping knowing there would never be wedding dress shopping.

The kids from her class came up to her and all commented on how pretty she looked. There is hope for our youth yet.
