Today In “LeBron James Makes A Little Kid Cry”

You’re the envy of every kid in your class. You’re going to see the Heat play the Magic on Sunday afternoon (a game the Heat won comfortably, 90-78), and if that’s not enough, you’ve got front-row seats for the whole thing. Literally, you’re sitting courtside. You can almost reach out and touch the players. Best seats in the house for the hottest ticket in town: everyone wishes they were you. Then, though, this happens…

…and everyone wishes they were you even more. Sure, LeBron’s maybe (hopefully) the biggest guy you’ll ever come in that close contact with. There’s some pain. Even some tears. But you’ll get over that – because LeBron feels bad, and he goes over to tell you so personally.

An audience with the King (who totaled 25 points, 11 rebounds, and eight assists) not only goes a long way toward stopping those tears, it stops them entirely and replaces them with a grin. Just like we said when LeBron almost bowled over Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria in similar fashion last month, the shock of the initial impact is well worth being able to tell that story later on. It only took these kids a few minutes to seem to agree.
