So Tony Romo is apparently a really nice guy, even though he plays quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys.
The Dallas Morning News reported on Wednesday that the Cowboys quarterback took a homeless man to the movies recently.
The man, who goes by Doc, was outside a theater when a man came up and offered to pay his way to see a movie. Planning on passing out fliers for a consignment store across the street, Doc declined. But then he realized that he had just turned down Romo.
He ran across the street, asked for the day off and ran back to the theater. Romo and Doc ended up sitting together watching the movie "Role Model." Doc told the newspaper that he informed Romo that he hadn't showered in days.
"Don't worry about that," Romo said, according to the newspaper. "I'm used to locker rooms."
He confirmed the encounter with Doc but wouldn't elaborate.
This latest gesture really impressed Doc.
"For me, it was a blessing," Doc said. "It came at just the right time. It gave me some encouragement and faith in mankind. I just wanted to say thank you."
So Romo is now Mother Theresa. I commend him on his nice gesture, maybe he should have offered him a shower, then again he said he did not mind the stench.
Touchdown Romo to Doc.
