Seattle Seahawk quarterback, Russell Wilson, is known for being a class act on and off the field. He is also a very outspoken Christian.
On a recent flight with Alaskan Airlines he spotted a soldier getting on the flight and making his way back to Coach Class. Wilson quickly saw to it that the soldier received an immediate upgrade to First Class!
The soldier was so shocked by what had just happened that he thanked him on Twitter:
Obviously, the soldier was left in shock and speechless over this act of kindness. I would be. The soldier thanked him on Twitter for the world to see. Then Russell Wilson answered him right back thanking him for his service and saying any time. Just epic. Major respect here for Wilson. This is the kind of hero our children need to see and emulate. It cost Wilson a little money and meant the world to that soldier. That’s how it should be.

We in Washington already know he his a class guy, but for those not already a fan of Russell Wilson, you may be now. Granted the headline was stretching the story by using "disrespected" in the title, when in fact he had seats in coach. But still in all the years of flying when I was in the military, even coach tickets were barely affordable. What a treat for this kid, to be invited up front. Way to go #3

Very misleading headline.

Sites like rightwingnews seem to post nothing but misleading and hyperbolic headlines.

Sad to see a bogus headline take away from the story of a nice deed done for a soldier my a stand up guy.

It really is. I guess they figured no one would click on it if it was just a story about somebody doing something nice.
Sad commentary on our society.
