Will Cain Surprises Zach Thomas Superfan With Zach Thomas

The sadness of the Super Bowl Industrial Complex can get a bit draining, even for those in town to cover the big game. But it does provide an opportunity for magical moments between people who may have otherwise never met. From The Something Positive Department comes this tale of Will Cain chatting up a hotel bartender then combining forces with Zach Thomas to make a dream become reality.

Now, Zach and I go back a little bit, so I sent him this video. Wanted him to see one of his biggest fans and the impact he’s had. I didn’t expect anything from it. Zach has a busy weekend. Not only is the SB in Miami but he’s made the final cutdown to 10 for the HOF.

By any definition, Zach Thomas is a Hall of Famer. pic.twitter.com/gSUZtfUOQ5

Thomas came close to being voted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame this week, but missed out. It appears it didn't damper his spirits or keep him from raising those who reveled in his stellar career.

Thanks for sharing fellas. Just to be clear. My role here was barely more than drinking tequila. This is all Zach, who doesn’t have social media, and did this because he’s a HOF human. https://t.co/r5KnLOZ2PT
