Watch: Reigning NFL MVP Stops Signing Autographs the Instant He Sees Fans from the Military
Josh Allen, the Buffalo bills’ NFL MVP, recently showed appreciation for military service members by tipping his cap and shaking hands with troops while signing autographs at Bills Training Camp. This act of respect reflects Allen’s ongoing support for the military. Previously, Allen participated in a video call with service members at an Army base and has gifted Super Bowl tickets to a veteran, as well as sent a handwritten note to an active-duty soldier overseas.His gestures stand out in an entertainment and sports culture often perceived as less appreciative of tradition and service. Allen’s actions highlight his gratitude for the sacrifices made by military personnel and serve as a positive example for other public figures.
Last year’s MVP for the National Football League, Josh Allen of the Buffalo Bills, pulled a classy move last week after he noticed fans from the military were nearby while he was signing autographs.
He literally tipped his cap to the service members who were at Bills Training Camp, shaking hands with each one of them before signing their memorabilia.
This wasn’t the first time Allen has given some love to the troops.
In one instance, Allen’s wide receiver teammate, Keon Coleman, had spent time at U.S. Army Fort Johnson — which has the Joint Readiness Training Center — and held a Q&A session with active duty service members back in March, according to the sports website Heavy.com.
Service members in the audience asked Coleman to Facetime with Allen, and one even made a bet about whether the MVP would pick up or not.
The service member said he’d do 50 push-ups if Allen answered, Heavy.com reported.
After a brief wait, Allen picked up the call.
“Oh, he picked up,” Coleman said before telling Allen, “I’m doing a Q&A at an Army base right now, someone asked me if you would answer.”
Allen proceeded to send a positive message to the U.S. Army members there before ending the call.
“He said thank you for y’all service,” Coleman told them.
Allen had previously sent Super Bowl tickets to a U.S. Army veteran after the team’s tough playoff loss in 2022, and reportedly sent a handwritten note to an active Army member who was serving overseas.
This is a nice reminder that not all famous entertainers are soulless.
Some of them, like Allen, appreciate the sacrifices these brave men and women make while giving them the respect they deserve.
Most people in Hollywood, the music business, and the sports industry are far-left.
They show little appreciation for tradition, duty, or the United States as a whole. Selflessness is usually not at the top of their list, either.
Yet there are still a precious few who recognize we live in the greatest country on earth, but that our freedom comes at a cost.
Let us hope more famous individuals follow Allen’s strong example, honoring the country that helped make them famous in the first place.
