Kansas City Chiefs guard Jeff Allen had an issue while trying to get to Saturday’s wild-card game in Kansas City – his car got stuck in the snow.
But then something awesome happened as a stranger jumped in to help, which led to a great story:
My car got stuck in the snow before the game & a nice guy named Dave help pull me out without knowing I was a player. I want to give him tickets to the AFC championship game for helping but don’t have a way to contact him. He drove a 97 or 98 Black Suburban. Pls RT #ChiefsKingdom

Thanks to the power of Twitter, Dave was found:
Update: Despite the recent influx in people changing their name to Dave in the KC area lol, I was actually able to track down the Dave that helped me thanks to the power of social media and #ChiefsKindgom. Thanks for your kindness https://t.co/e4OkEg6AAw

And it gets even more special:
This the Dave who helped @Chiefs player @JeffAllen71 when his car was stuck in the snow before the game. Dave is also homeless and lives in his car. The story tonight and how Jeff is giving him an AFC championship game experience he will never forget. @41actionnews #letsroll pic.twitter.com/Hb120B4FS7

Dave will now get to have a day he’ll never forget next Sunday, as he’ll be at Arrowhead cheering on his Chiefs as they take on the Patriots in the AFC title game.
It’s always great to be reminded that there are good people on this planet and Dave and Jeff Allen are certainly two of those people.
