Prince Amukamara caught in the act!

[Husker454]

While shopping at Wally-world this weekend I got in a huge line to check out when low and behold I realized that one of the guys in front of me was Prince Amukamara. I didn't say a word, just observed as the lady in front of us, who had a litany of 5 and under kids, tried to find enough money to pay for her groceries. Out of no where Prince pulled out some money, gave it to the clerk, and paid for the woman's groceries (like $60.00). First off, she had no idea who he was. Second off, he never offered to tell her who he was. He just said that God had blessed him in his life and that he liked blessing others. I felt like a piece of garbage because I'm quite sure I'm pulling down way more cash than this college kid (at least for the next 10 months until he makes more in a year than I will in my life-time!) and I was simply annoyed with this poor lady for holding up the line. Anyways, one of the coolest things I've ever witnessed and it just happened to be Prince Amukamara who did it... I know these guys get thrown under the bus all of the time when they screw up but its about time somebody reported something genuinly cool that normally would never make the news. My new favorite player: Prince Amukamara

Thanks for sharing! It's nice to see players in a positive light off the field too. See Tim Tebow isn't the only one!!

That's awesome. I've done that before, in similar circumstances. If you've got some spare cash, and you can see someone has trouble and just needs food, it's a pretty easy decision. Great to see a guy on the team doing this.

To be completely fair, he could easily get reimbursed for this if he wanted. Athletes get all transportation, food, and clothing costs paid for by the athletic department, not to mention the free housing, food, per diems, etc.

 

Obviously Prince didn't do it for those reasons, as he is an incredibly nice guy and generous person, but just sayin.

Wow, so awesome. Such great character and perspective.

If I was about to land 1st round cash I'd be handing out bills too

 

But seriously, this is awesome. He truly is the epitome of a Husker. I'm glad he's on our side.

Maybe I should wander around Wal-Mart looking for Prince. Then get infront of him at the check out lane..... "Hey, uhh Prince, can you spot me to pay for my 3 cases of beer. I'll get you back, im good for it."

 

Good for Prince.... he is a good guy.

Tebow would have fed everyone in Wal-Mart with two fish and five loaves of bread.
