The Kid Whose Lunch with an FSU Star Went Viral Got the VIP Treatment Last Night

Last week, 11-year-old Bo Paske became the subject of one of the internet’s most touching stories. While visiting his school, Florida State football star Travis Rudolph saw Bo, who is autistic, eating lunch all by himself. He decided to join Bo for some pizza, and a teacher caught the moment in a picture that later went viral.

His mother later shared the photo on Facebook, saying,

I had tears streaming down my face … I’m not sure what exactly made this incredibly kind man share a lunch table with my son, but I’m happy to say that it will not soon be forgotten. This is one day I didn’t have to worry if my sweet boy ate lunch alone, because he sat across from someone who is a hero in many eyes.

Well, last night, Bo and his mom got another surprise from their FSU hero. Along with getting the VIP treatment at last night’s game against Ole Miss (which FSU won), they also presented Bo with a gift: His own custom FSU jersey.
